The surgeons office called me and said bcbs of illinois denied me. Said i need proof that medication is not controlling high blood pressure or my high cholesterol. So i called my family dr. and having her fax over my medical records so the surgeons office can re-submit it to insurance again. Last blood work my total cholesterol was 201 with medication and my blood pressure has been a bit on the high side with medication. I'm really worried this is all coming to an end for me

Yikes! That is scary. My blood pressure is controlled with the meds (now that they added another) but I would think in the long run it would save them to pay for this now rather than medication & tests for the rest of your life.

That is very scary. I wish you the best and I hope they reconsider with the info from your doc.

You'll be OK. Have faith. The insurance companies like to torture us a bit but for the most part, it all works out. Hang in there!

Thanks ya'll....i'm just so in the dumps today :/....My hopes were so high on getting approved. I just don't know what to think. The surgeons office is going to submit it again after she gets my medical info from my primary doctor.

If your IL - how is your surgeon in tx?

My insurance is through my husbands employer and the corporate office is in illinois.

Hang in there! Stay in the fight!! Praying for you (HUGS)

Bethann you have been such a great support for me. I just want to tell you that everything will be ok. Resubmit, they will approve you! They just have just over looked something

Iverina...you are so sweet! We are in the process of submitting it again. Not giving up

Have faith sis, all will work out for you, I will be praying for you !

I still have not heard anything back from the insurance lady....My info from my primary care dr. was sent to insurance last Thursday. Tomorrow will be a week....Still holding out hope for a phone call with good news about my appeal. The waiting is so hard!!!

Waiting sucks!!
