approval 1st approval letter to FINALLY see the surgeon!
Piper76 posted a topic in Insurance & Financing
Hello everyone!! I'm extremely excited, I FINALLY got a letter of approval to have a surgeon consulatation! After 1 1/2 of dealing with one insurance, and being denied, I canceled it and switched to HealthNet-Medi-cal (So. California) with Pinoeer Medical Group.To my surprise I received the 1 step letter for a consulation! I know it isn't an approval just yet for surgery but my goodness it's the first step! :D :D :D I was told by the surgical coordnaitor that they move quickly and that I meet the requirements with my BMI just alone, so this means I have a pretty good chance of being approved for surgery!!She told me that surgery can be as soon as 1-2 months!! I have an appointment this Tuesday for a 4 hour long "program" requirment which will include the 1 session with the nurtriounist and all the insurance requirments. I have an appointment this week for the psychological evaluation which I do have to pay for ($80) so that step is taken care of. Alright folks.. I will give an update next week after Friday because that is when I meet with the actual doctor! Good luck, Piper :wub:
