Waiting



Recommended Posts

My request for surgery was sent to my insurance company today. I'm so nervous they're going to reject it. I don't know why I'm nervous because everything is in order, but I still have this impending feeling of doom. I really want the surgery so badly.

I'm planning a cruise in October and I am hoping that my timing is good. I have Humana insurance and I was wondering if anyone else had experiences with them. I have Humana POS. it's a Medicare advantage program.

I am in this all alone. I need the support of people like me who are going through the surgery. For now, I wait

You got this and you're not alone. You have support here. I have felt oppression from close family and friends in this process but I keep on keeping on. Good luck with the approval! Pray about it and it will all work out!

I also have Humana POS, but I still have a few hoops to jump through before they submit to insurance. How long have you been working on this, also curious what state. I am in Georgia. I will be watching to see what happens with you now. LOL.

I have not been at this process long. I started on June 17th and have been through a barrage of tests, gotten letters from my PCP, cardiologist and shrink, and generally got stamped OK by my surgeon today. She put the paperwork into my insurance company today.

I am in Houston, Texas. According to my insurance company a six month period with the nutritionist is not required. My PCP wrote a letter stating that I tried many diets with him. Humana told me that this is all that I need.

I don't know how long I will have to wait for them to review and approve or deny. I don't have much faith in insurance companies although so far mine has been very helpful. They actually have a private number for bariatrics and assign a person to you!

I will let everyone know how long this takes and what the end result is.

Unbelievable! I got approved already. It took less than 24 hours. I can thank a thorough surgeon and lots of letters from my doctors! My surgery is 8-8-14

      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.
