Hello everyone, This is my first time posting to this board but I have been lurking and reading all of the post for about a month now, especially post that have to do with UHC. I also have UHC Choice Plus and have been awaiting approval. Im finally posting now because I have finally been APPROVED!!! and I just wanted to share my journey with everyone that is still waiting. Here goes...
2/23/07 Consultation with Barix Clinics
3/8/07 Information submitted to UHC
3/14/07 Called to be told that it was in review
3/23/07 Called again to be told that it was still in review and that they
had to request more info from the Dr and that the dr had sent the info requested. Thought this sounded suspious so I called the dr who said they had not heard from the insurance company and had not been asked to send anymore info. So at this point the dr checked the UHC website and found that they had my claim listed as being denied because of no coverage which is not the case so she called them and was told that they didnt know why it was saying that the claim had been denied when it was still pending and to check back
3/29/07 I called again to find out that something had been entered incorrect and that it would be fixed and escalated to a supervisor. A couple of hours later I received a phone call from UHC to say that it had been approved and the letters were mailed to myself and the dr. And that they will be checking back with me after the surgery to see how things were going.
So I justed wanted to share my experience to give everyone who is still waiting hope that though things seem crazy it is going to be ok. I guess it just takes longer for some of us to get our approval. :clap2:
