upset...insurance denied



Recommended Posts

I've called my insurance and they sent me a form to make sure my surgeon completes... And I gave it to them. I've been up my surgeons a$$ to say the least bc I've been so concerned that they're not telling me the right thing for insurance. I love the office and they always put my mind At ease - but being that my surgery is scheduled for aug. 5th I'm nervous I won't get final approval.

Connie I was very nervous about gettin my approval also. I received approval at 12:00 yesterday and my surgery us at 8:00 am tomorrow. My psych was late turning in her report. Final submission of paper work happened July 3rd. The insurance carrier told me not to worry they would have approval within 48 hours of final submission and they did. Again if you are nervous call them and ask more questions. wishing you the best!

My fear of denial is because I'm so on the cusp- 37.5 BMI and asthma, reflux, and insomnia. I don't have sleep apnea and I'm on a diaretic for high blood pressure but that's a new diagnosis within the last month

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
