Scheduling the date this month

My last visit in Sept at the surgeons office, they told me next visit in October that they will be scheduling the date. I emailed the insurance coordinator to ask her if that means it's already approved. She said no, that I sill have to finish up my 4 visits/3 months. I just don't know why they would schedule the date without having the approval. Sounds odd, no?

And besides weight gain...what would be a reason for denial? I lost 3 lbs from my first weigh in, but would I be denied if I gained anything over my first weigh in...or if I gain any of those 3 lbs back,is that considered grounds for denial as well?

I was told not to gain even 1 pound. The insurance companies are getting stricter. But it really depends on your insurance co. You could just give them a call and ask them. Good luck
