Just got my APPROVAL from INS. YAY!!!



Recommended Posts

I am SOO excited!!! I just called to check the status of my insurance approval and was told I was approved and they gave me my approval number! Whoo Hoo! lol I called my surgeons office but they were out to lunch. Now, I just have to get it scheduled. I have a "dummy" date of Nov. 16th which is what they gave my insurance company but the girl at the dr's office said that could change. So I will be calling later on today to find out if I can get a "in stone" date! My paperwork was submitted last thursday, exactly one week ago. So 5 business days and I'm approved. I feel like I've won the lottery because as long as I can get it done before Dec 31st, then I wont have to pay anything for this surgery, it will be covered 100%! Anyways, thanks for listening, I just got so excited!! :wink2:

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
