    December 2013 Sleevers

    Finally got my surgery date!!! December 9th is the big day. I am very excited!!! Seems real at last, as we thought I would be sleeved in October.......then November . I am soooooooo happy to join the December sleevers!!
  5. Only twelve more days till my last visit with the NUT and REsubmission to Cigna!!!! I did not have enough time with the NUT prior to submitting my paperwork in October . I am so excited, the surgery schedule is pretty open for November so if I get a quick turn around with Cigna (only took 3 days to deny the first attempt) I will be sleeved in November !!! Happy Dance!!! I can't think of better way to avoid the holiday bulge!!! :)
  6. I am eagerly awaiting the reappearance of a multitude of bones!!!

    Cigna insurance approval?

    When I submitted to Cigna the first time, it took them 3 business days to deny it. I needed more time with the NUT. Next appointment with the NUT is November 4th and the paperwork will be resubmitted that day. Hoping for an approval this time AND a fast turn around.

    got my paperwork sent in.

    Cigna is a pain!! Submitted my paperwork last week. Heard today that they did not approve it, want another month of seeing the NUT. I called twice to see what was needed and so did the Dr. office. I am right on the line with my BMI, has to be over 40 because I have no co morbidities. I have about four pounds to play with to stay above that line. Now my last appt with the NUT will be Nov 4th. Have to lose something.... But it can't be more than 4 lbs!!! Now I am a nervous wreck !! Ugggggghhhhh!!

    Plus Size Fashionistas...

    I am just the opposite!! Currently hate to shop for clothes, I have a closet full of baggy t shirts and drawstring pants that I really hope last quite awhile!!

    I WAS APPROVED! FINALLY

    Congrats on your approval. My dr just sent the paperwork to the insurance company yesterday.....waiting on pins and needles. They said I could be having surgery this month if the approval comes back in a week or two!! Super excited !!

    PROGRAM FEES

    I have been seeing Dr. Snow with Heart of America Bariatrics. They usually have a $200.00 program fee, but have been waiving it this year.....said it was due to the economy. Other than my co-pay for the first visit, I have not paid any out of pocket expenses so far. Last appointment with the NUT was yesterday and my paperwork was submitted to Cigna yesterday..... guess I will find out about any extra fees when I get my approval.
