July 5, 2006 - called UHC, they indicate that lapbanding is covered on our policy provided we meet the BMI criteria.

 

Researched doctors, and decided on Spivak (out of Network), Spiegel and St. Laurent (both in network).

 

July 8 , 2006 - Dr. Spiegel seminar & consult. Supposed to hear from case worker by Friday July 14.

 

July 14 - I called, they did not ask name, they asked for what insurance, then indicated they had just filed UHC on Wednesdays.

 

July 18- Cypress Support group.

 

July 19 - Called UHC, they have not received anything yet.

 

July 24 - Called Spiegels office. They can't locate chart, will call me back.

(never did)

 

Friday, July 21 - Appointment with Dr. St. Laurent. Brought records for past 10 years. Talked with Jasmine & Paloma (insurance girls). They indicate they will expedite my paperwork on Monday.
