Insurance Approval

[twig1425 0]

I just received a letter from my insurance company (Capital Blue Cross). It says I've been approved for services which they agree are medically necessary. However, the requested services/procedures just says "inpatient admission". It doesn't even list the provider whom requested the auth. I'm pretty sure this means I'm approved. Anyone else get a letter like this which was non-specific? Guess I'm just so scared somebody is going to tell me I can't have the Sleeve done.

@@twig1425

sounds to me like you have been approved lady

call the insurance company tomorrow

when you read them what the letter says

they might stop you and say "yep that means you are approved"

but ease your mind and make the call

good luck

Smells like a approval. Call them Tmmw to get more details.

The insurance company not the doc

Yay congrats!

My nurse called and told me I was approved. She said they spent 5 hours on the phone with insurance and the last time I called I was told my plan didn't cover bariatrics. So I'm not calling because they are idiots.

Make sure no loophole clauses in the letter about benefits
