Waits For Insurance Approval

[Fr33B 4]

Today the bariatric office called and told me, as they were reviewing my labs to submit to insurance company for surgery, THEY CONVIENIENTLY FORGOT TO TELL ME 6 MONTHS AGO that I would need a weight loss summary for a consecutive 2 months written and signed by a doctor!!!!?!!?!?!??!! Where the F$&* am I gonna come up with that in a couple week?!? My insurance ends in October!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Theyre sorry?!? Wth do u mean sorry?!? I waisted 6 MONTHS for absolutely nothing!!!! I just wanna cry! No I'm almost positive the surgery will NEVER happen at this point.

My heart breaks for you . Do you have a family Dr that has seen you does he have records of your weight did you ever discuss Lapband with him or a diet plan Call him and make an appointment tell him your problem perhaps he can help.. My Dr and I jumped through more BCBS hooops then a circus dog but I got my band. Best of Luck . Please let us know what happens you have lots of folks pulling for you.....

Hot the approval yesterday but I'm still jumping thru hoop :-( my insurance is up on my bday oct 31st and surgeon is pushing for oct 23 rd with no pre opt diet....what to do? And not to mention I won't have insurance immediately after the surgery if something's goes wrong. I'm still praying.
