    TheSpoonieLife got a reaction from Rosey posey in The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center - Columbus, OH   
    Hi guys,
    I just joined this yesterday and posted this question, but apprentice I did it under the wrong section.
    I'm just starting out on this journey and am looking for someone who has been thru this specific program.
    October 7th - Attended the mandatory seminar with the head of the department
    October 16th - Met with my PCP for the insurance-required preauth; set up psych evaluation
    October 24th - Had the psychological evaluation (can't move on to next required appts without those results being sent over to OSU)
    October 27 - Received a call from OSU to set up next appointments
    ----
    I'm scheduled with the program coordinator, dietician and for the medical evaluation on November 19th.
    Has anyone been thru this specific program? I'm really wondering if the BLAST courses (and others) are required and if so, if they are required prior to surgery? My insurance only required the preauth from my PCP.
    Thank you all in advance!
    ❤️C

    No, when I called the insurance and read all those questions from the package and they said they only need the preauthorization from my primary care dr.

    Ladypoohbear it's very easy to get Protein in without animal products. Gardein and Quorn are great meatless brands. Beans, lentils, milk, eggs, cottage cheese...etc.
