I have finished all my test and submitted all my paperwork as of Sept 10, and found out that my doctor's office has not submitted my paperwork to the insurance company yet. UGH...REALLY? MY insurance company did not even require half the tests that the surgeon did. Not feeling the love.:biggrin:

I have been told that it can take up to 4 weeks to get approved and that my surgeon is booked out 4-6 weeks. That puts the big day in December....I work retail so December is out of the question. Any suggestions on how to light a fire under the doctors office? Now that I have done everything required, why shouldn't they be obligated to get my paperwork in a timely manner?

Just needed to vent.

Go to another doctor in your area.

You would think they would submit your paperwork when it was complete as a courtesy to you as a patient. You CHOSE to come to them, not the other way around.

I agree with Sabbah... call around to other surgeons and see if someone else can treat you a little better.
