jillrn 0 Posted January 6, 2006 Many of you have followed my saga trying to get this surg approved and my appeals-- THank you for your support! I was denied by Anthem for my second appeal. I am insured through my dh and they have always covered the surg until Nov 1 the same day my paperwork was submitted they excluded anyway ON TO THE GOOD NEWS!!!! I found out my work is covering it for 1000-1500 dollars!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I dont have the insurance at my work though, I am PT but they said if I go FT I can pick up the insurance then I would be covered. I have been thinking of going FT b/c we need the money right now, but I would probably want to drop down to PT again next year or maybe even next fall. Is this ethically wrong?? I can still keep the coverage PT I have to pay more (which I will keep it b/c I will need it for fills right??) I am so excited I feel hope again for the first time in a while! I need this pray it works out ANyone have WAUSAU?????? thanks again you guys have been so supportive!!!! JIlll Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sarabride2006 0 Posted January 6, 2006 I have Anthem BCBS and a copy of their new medical policy. Please email me if you would like it. I had my surgery 12/28, they denied me once and then approved it within 2 days. sara.kattawar@cardinal.com Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gentlespirit 1 Posted January 7, 2006 Go for it. Plans change all the time, and not telling them what your future plans are is not wrong to my way of thinking. Besides, by then maybe you'll want or need to stay full time...no one knows what will happen in the future. Emily Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Victoriana 10 Posted January 8, 2006 I think that insurance companies are so stupid. Its HEALTHY to get a band. IN the long run they save money for cryng out loud! I think it is perfectly right to get full time and use the insurance. Your work earns you the right. And reducing time later is not going to be a problem..When I worked retail, we were "compelled" to hire part timers to avoid the insurance benifit costs. And do you think they gave it a second thought to lay off right after Christmas and inventory? It happens every day! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
