Hi Everyone! I got a letter today from a Clinical Support Coodinator. She is the CSC for our BCBS Fed. Employee Program. They say they cannot make a decision until they have received more info. Judging by the date of the letter, May 28, 2008, the doctor's office tried to get approval before I did any evaluations. I just finished up my psyche and nut. evals last week on Thursday. BCBS want the two evals, a copy of a sleep study, the Dr's price, and the name of the facility where the procedure will take place. This is the first I have heard about a sleep study. I don't think I even know what a sleep study is! LOL!!! Anyway, BCBS states that upon receipt of all the information requested they will make their decision within 5 working days and provide me with written notification. If they hear nothing by July 10 they will make a decision based on what little info they have. I am guessing they will say "no" with only a little info. Lisa:rolleyes2:
