  1. When I was denied the first time, the insurance company sent me a letter detailing why I was denied. I provided the information to them with my appeal letter and 2 weeks later had my approval. Did they send you a letter after the denial? If not I would request one.

  4. I was originally denied for my surgery. I was instantly mad at the surgeons office since the denial letter stated they didn't receive all the information needed. I called the insurance company and they told me I could appeal it, but it could take up to another 4 weeks (it really only took 2). I compiled all the information myself (notes from PCP, lab work, ect.) wrote a letter, and submitted the information to the insurance company myself. That way I knew they'd received everything. (I work in HR/Benefit for a living so it was nothing new to me.) My surgery date is September 17. If there is anything I can do to help, let me know. We need to get you past this little bump in the road to "Loser"ville!
  5. Congratulations on your date! I just got mine too, September 17. I can't wait to shop on the other side of the wall!!
  6. I am so excited, it's finally happening! My surgery date is September 17. I can't wait to shop on the other side of the wall (regular sizes)! It may be a little while, but I know I will do it!
