Hi all--
I've been lurking around reading for a while. I finally joined while awaiting the insurance approval. There shouldn't be any problems there--I was approved back in October, but although the Dr. was in network, the facility he did the procedure at was not. I didn't realize that until after I went through the approval process. I didn't have the $3000 for the out of network facility, so everything fell by the wayside.
I recently found out he now does the procedure at an in-network hospital, so am waiting for the approval again. I should hopefully here something by next week.
I'm in Texas, northwest of Houston and am glad to be a part of this group. I'm definitely someone who needs support, as I'm lousy at doing most things (especially weight loss) without help.
Thanks for being a great group and offering your support and reaching out to those who are new to the process. I'll keep you posted when things start to move along.
Thanks again and I'm glad to be here!!!:wave:
