Those of you that were (and are) being patient enough to battle insurance companies deserve an award. Good job, Bean! It will all pay off in the end. You'll be banded here in the states, right at home, with aftercare readily available. Damn proud of you!

Hot Damm girl. I'm thrilled for you. I too wrangled with my insurance company (BC/BS of New Jersey) for about 8 months. I felt like jumping up on my desk & yelling when I finally recieved the letter telling me that yep, the surgery was medically necessary. I know I was hyperventilating!

This is WONDERFUL NEWS!

Hey Guys -

I feel like a rock star... You are all so sweet.

Just an update: My surgeon's office called me yesterday because they already had a letter from Blue Cross stating I was approved... I have my pre-op consultation scheduled for the 24th. (I would have gone sooner - but I am going to be in my New York office next week.)

It is looking good for surgery in February!! I am so excited!!

Thanks, again.
