New here: Tricare & Psych Eval question
mljalways replied to Allformyson's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I have tricare prime and couldnt find anyone in the area to take it and my pcm said when it id for physchology they wont refer. I was lucky enough to be able to go to a base near the house. -
Thanks flip, I will try them

My docs diet pal said 2 adult chewable. I have only tried the Centrum ones. They are NOT good but tolerable I guess.

mljalways replied to JamieNP's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
Yeah it does suck, I got lucky I guess. Having tricare is ahrd enough! I couldnt find a physchologist who took it so I was able to have that done on base too. -
Tricare Approval or Denial??

I was told they dont cover it becuase you can use the health and wellness center at any MTF -

How about I went to a senimar at Palm Bay Hospital in August and waited til Sept 29th for a Doctor consult and then waited 2 weeks for them to obtain insurance (tricare) approval only to be told that they want me to pay the difference between the docs charge and what tricare will pay. That means out of pocket for me $4008.00. Keep in mind, I was APPROVED by my insurance. Sounds like a scam to me and a very disappointing roller coaster ride for me:frown:

Palm Bay Forida patients be aware
mljalways replied to mljalways's topic in Weight Loss Surgeons & Hospitals
It was a scam because this doc is a tricare network provider period. Cannot balance bill patients. Lesson learned. -
Froma mother who has two children fihting this war I have to say it is NOT the war killing our economy. Regardless of wether you agree with the war or not, that is not what hurt our ecomnomy it is the greedy people of wall street and washington. Greedy both by republicans and democrats.

Diabetes and Lap Band
mljalways replied to grannytwinkie's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I am diabetic too and have not been banded yet. I cant wait to get rid of meds!!!! -
I am so sorry to hear that!!! Belive this or not, I had no problems at all with getting my approval from Tricare......it was the docs office that wasted 2 months of my time. After I recieved approval (which only took a week) the doc told me I would have to pay his office $4000.00. I am starting all over now.
