You could also call the insurance and ask what exactly is the hold up.

I received a letter today stating that my approval was on hold that they needed more information of my health status. listed some things they need, things i was sure had been gathered. Cyn this is probably the same situation you are in. We just have to jump through some more hoops and make sure they have what they need.

I am just telling myself it didn't say NO, so there is Hope. And I am clinging to that hope. They do not make it easy that is for sure.

The insurance co should be able to tell you why it's on hold. You are your own best advocate with the insurance co. Call them ask them what it is they need from your Dr. That way you'll be prepared also for whats to come. As for the dr office not calling you back. I am sorry but that is crap! You can also let your insurance company know they are not in compliance. Insurance co. Sometimes will have a compliance clause in the contract with PCP.

Cyn, my insurance was on hold for a couple days because my nutritionist forgot to sign her evaluation!! Maybe it's an "easy" fix, and this will just be a distant memory this time next week!! Good luck and hugs to you, girl!!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
