Sad Day: 4 Week Delay

Surgery was supposed to be this coming Tuesday and the dreaded phone call came today. Postponed till July 28th due to insurance complications. My whole life was rearranged for this week. I had dog boarding booked, my mom was in town from out of state, significant other got off of work and I had a substitute teacher booked for work. Ugh! :(

I am so sorry! That must be so frustrating. I am struggling for my patience right now, they have been telling me for a week that they will fax my stuff, but as of 12 today it was still sitting on the PAs desk. I have very limited time to make a surgery date work this summer, and if it doesn't fall within a workable time frame, it will have to wait for December...... Hoping it all works out the way it is supposed too!

Hang in there both of you. I had an 8 week delay due to ulcers. It is tough. I hope you can reschedule what you need to.

I am so sorry to hear that. Hang in there. You don't want the delay but you don't want to owe the full surgery amount either. Did they give specifics on how to get the insurance resolved?

Thanks for the support. The insurance thing is goofy. My 1st appt was January 20th. Then I went back each month around the 20th as part of my medically supervised diet requirement. Then everything seemed good to go after my June 30th appt. when the paperwork was submitted the insurance company denied it saying they require 180 days so they count month 1 as January 20th-February 20th, month 2 as February 20th-March 20th, etc. making it so that I need to go back for an appt July 20th to qualify. I am definitely getting tired of jumping through hoops. It'll be worth it in the end though! :)
