cupsgirl 0 Posted October 13, 2009 Hello, I am new and have only just been referred to Dr. Koura in Sacramento. I understand there will be alot for me to do before insurance will approve or deny my request. I am just wondering if anyone knows if its true that Pacificare requires 6 months with a nutrionist prior to surgery approval? I cant imagine having to wait 6 more months. I am ready for this surgery yesterday... I know I should be patient, I am just ready to feel better. thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LilMissDiva Irene 3,282 Posted October 14, 2009 Hey cups! Why didn’t I see this sooner? I am also a band patient of Dr. Koura in Sacramento. He’s a really good surgeon, the best in our area in fact. If you have any questions I’ll be happy to help you. You can send me messages if you need anything. One thing though we do not share the same insurance, so I am no help in that area. Best wishes!!
