Sedalia MO...Dr Hornbostle

[2bthinagn 3]

I have been on a 1 1/2yr journey here. Was on last pscyh (sp) appt..my insurance was going to pay, then Medicare approved the surgery. Dr wasnt with a CTR OF EXCELLENCE and nowhere in KCMetro was. The search was on. I kept waiting for somewhere here local to be designated. But NO!! So...now I am going for the seminar in Sedalia, that is about a 2 hr drive for me. But I have waited long enough. Am afraid I will die before somewhere in KC is approved. SO my question is,who has used Dr Hornbostle?? Any tips with him and his office, is there anything I can do ahead of time so I can be ready to go? Or does anyone have any inside info of a Dr in the KC area getting approved for Medicare? Thanks so much

I'm in KC and what they just said in my seminar is that "they" are supposed to review the hospitals at the end of the month and so there may be a Center of Excellence in KC in Feb.
