The Journey to Get Scheduled

My first appt was Jan 4th of this year. I'm still in process of getting all approvals to even have insurance finalize its approval. I have not heard from my patient advocate since Jan 5th. Have no idea on where my psych eval landed, my blood work , etc. I'm still committed to doing this for me. But feel like I'm in it alone right now. Any thoughts?

I am currently in a similar position....sort of. Can't really help you, so I am sorry for that, but I want to get started on this site so I can develop some support for the whole process. My insurance requires 3 consecutive months of documented weight loss effort, which I'm sure most do. I only have 1 month, although I've been talking to my doctor about weight loss for like 15 years! We've just never done anything formal with it I guess. I go Friday for my 2nd month appointment and hope that once 3 months are completed, my insurance will approve it and I'll be on my way to getting a date scheduled. I won't have my psych eval or bloodwork done until down the road.

Wishing you luck and hoping you hear something soon!

Call your coordinator and check. They lost my request somewhere and insurance never received it. I would've waited forever!
