ginger63 0 Posted April 2, 2015 I started the process for gastric sleeve the last of December. I have everything completed-blood work-psych evaluation-dietitian. Waiting for pre-op when the doctors office calls. The hospital he does surgery at is not a "Center for Medical Excellence". So everything has been put on hold. I am so ready to give up. They assured me the first visit that everything was great with my insurance. I have been trying to have this surgery for a very long time. The one time I see the light at the end of the tunnel it burns out. ( Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Elode 8,093 Posted April 2, 2015 So can't you have your paper work transfered over to another surgeon who does operate at a Center for medical excellence and keep the ball rolling? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bluegrass 12 Posted April 3, 2015 Don't stop until you find a surgeon and hospital that is accepted by your insurance. It took me 15 years to find an insurance company that would even consider covering the surgery. But I finally found it and it saved my life!! DON'T STOP UNTIL YOU GET THE SURGERY!!!!
