My appointment is at 230 so I'm just going to fast until after I see her. I'll keep you guys informed!! Btw, what shoo you guys talk about during this meeting? Do you get quizzed? I'm at Richmond Kaiser.

Is your case manager doing a psych evaluation or just looking to see if you are serious about complying with your surgeon's direction for your new post-op life?

Your case manager can actually be to your advantage. Every time I have something serious or chronic going on, my insurance (BCBS Federal Employee) offers me the services of a case manager. My case manager is a liason between me and the doctors, hospitals, and clinical services I encounter in seeking proper care for that particular condition.

Many insurance companies take weeks to approve the bariatric packet of info submitted a bariatric surgeon. My case manager got mine approved in two days. I hope your visit goes well for you. I wish you good luck and good health.
