Hi Maggiehpp,

Sorry to be so slow answering - I've not explored LBT as much as I should and did not see your note. I have not been banded as yet. Turns out there are often issues with Medicare - too long to go into detail, but one of the Centers of Excellence has had billing issues with them and has a long backlog of Medicare patients to go through. Looks like my name will not come up for as much as a year. I'm applying through another COE now, they tell me it should be 3-6 months. Another group in KC area should have final okay to bill Medicare soon, and I'm going to keep after them, too, hoping they may be faster than 3-6 months. I'm willing to bet it will be that long, though. I don't know why everyone wants government-run health care. No one will get the care they need...
