brightlikeadiamond 17 Posted October 25, 2013 Hello all, needing to vent some frustrations I'm having during this journey. I have BCBS IL and they are doing everything imaginable to deny my surgery. It first started when my insurance coordinator tried to verify that I had the benefit. It took four calls for them to tell her yes. Then it took 2 weeks to pre-authorize my psych eval. Now after I've completed all required pre-op appointments, they are back to saying I don't have the benefit in my policy. A couple phone calls later, they again say I have it but they denied me cause I didn't complete required appointments. . . Although I have. This is so frustrating and I'm about to give up! Has anyone else had to deal with anything like this? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
da1stladie 63 Posted October 25, 2013 When I applied its was 2 extensive psych evals, two-three different health issues. Documented weights the last 5 years. Nut visit, support group meeting and 10% weight loss before they would appove. Dont give up it paid off in the end. Had my surgery and at goal. :-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
