Sorry I haven't updated... They called me on Tuesday... I'm APPROVED!! They said they would be calling me with a class date and pre op testing date.. It's now Friday.. No more calls!?!?!? Am I being too impatient? Or is this unusual?
I'm so angry right now. The insurance lady can NOT get my paperwork right! All she has to do is send a PA form with my fax. She has messed it up twice now. I'm driving there tomorrow, I don't know what else to do.
I'm in Muncie!! I have jumped through all the hoops and I'm waiting for Medicaid approval. I am an IU north patient, Dr. Selzer. I started my journey at Ball Bariatric in Muncie and decided the lap band wasn't for my... I'm a RNY kind of girl! I attend support meetings in Muncie still. My only complaint is I feel like I was left in the dark most of my journey about my specific requirements. I has to be pushy to get them!
Well.. On Wednesday before Thanksgiving, I received notice that my approval was suspended. There was a mix up in the fax system. I'm still in limbo! Where are you from?
His morning I called Indiana Medicaid to check the status of my claim for approval. I was told that they have approved the room Jan 14-18, so I guess that's my date? The insurance specialist is gone until Monday at the surgeons office, so I can not check with her (ugh!) I am assuming that Medicaid will not approve a room if they aren't going to approve the actual procedure.. Right?
Hello everyone! I am pending insurance approval. My surgeon is Dr. Selzer with IU. My mind is in a million pieces! I have no idea of a time frame. I was told that I would have a class next and some testing, then surgery. Has anyone else had Dr. Selzer that could help me with an idea of a time frame. The holidays are coming up and I can not make plans :-( thanks!
