Anyone heard of this requirement?



Recommended Posts

So I have been called my insurance regarding if this or that is covered and whatnot.

Everything is covered at 100% however one rep with my insurance stated that since I have

not been with my current employer for 1 year that I would have to wait until I hit that date.

Spoke to the lady at Surgeons office regarding scheduling everything else and mentioned the 1 year thing

and she said she has never heard of this requirement.

I have no idea...Anyone heard of this?

If it matters I have Sutter Select under UMR.

I have heard of that. Not sure if it can be waived. Since only one person mentioned it I would call back and ask specifically!

Yes, it has to do with the type of policy your employer has.

I was afraid of this. I will call again and the office will call to verify.

I'm glad I only have to wait until Nov 1st at least its fairly close :)

that sounds like a policy thing which your company probably requires. Call and double check

I'm not 100% sure, but this almost sounds like a pre-existing condition clause. Let us know what you find out.

      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.
