Hey everyone, I've been reading alot on this insurance topic but havnt seen much about horiZon nj direct access.... Just wondering if anyone had some info for what they require. I called my insurance and all they said was I just need a letter of medical necessity and pre auth.... I am 5"3 about 210... I have pcos arthritis and very high blood pressure, my surgeon said I was a good candidate but I'm nervous about the approval process. I already did my upper ugi swollow study saw the psych, the nutritionist, a pulmonoligist and my regular dr. I have an appt on Monday with my surgeon again. I'm wondering if they will send my stuff to the insurance at that time? Any help from you guys would be greatly appreciated!

I go for my 2nd appt today with my surgeon this afternoon, hopefully they send out all of my paperwork today if they didnt yet and I get my surgery date! Please keep your fingers crossed for me! Hope you guys are doing well!

So I'm sitting here in the exam room waiting for the dr and I asked the nurse how many more appointments until I can schedual my surgery and ugh she said I still have one more appointment.... That's a total of 3 appointments with this surgeon until I can schedual a surgery date? I've heard ppl only seeing their surgeons once! Well see when he comes in but I'm a little upset now because I got everything done and thought I'd be able to sch. It today!
