doctor screwed up notes



Recommended Posts

well, everything was going long fine, last week i went in for my last 6 month doctor diet visit. I was so happy! Well the surgerons office called me today and let me know that they recieved the notes from the regular doctor and guess what! He did not do the notes right!! He was only worried about the sugar and crap and for the first 4 months he did not put in the notes that I was there for weight loss program so I could get my surgery!! IF he is not willing to fix this I have to start over with another 4 months of visits.. He only documented May and June!! I can't stop crying, I have done everything I was suppose to do why did he not fill out the stupid notes right!:thumbup::scared2::scared2::incazzato:I jus feel like goin in the kitchen and pigging out but instead think I am going to take something for this headache then just go to bed....I just dont want to deal with this right now.

Maybe you can have your doctor write a recommedation letter stating that he followed you for a supervised diet for 6 months and supports you getting the surgery. When you submit the notes and his letter, the insurance company should realize that all of the months count.

HTH.

Are his notes hand written or are they electronic? If they are electronic that happens all the time and he can easily go back and fix it.
