Newbie Alert
Hello Everyone, I'm kind of a Newbie, well sort of. I've been lurking out here for a really long time. I created my OH account in 2008 when I applied for WLS the first time and was denied. Life happens and I'm back and now approved by my insurance company after a second denial. Yeah! My biggest frustration at the moment, and maybe it's just me but, I called my Bariatric center last Wednesday to let them know I received a verbal approval from my insurance company and I still haven't received a call back from them. I called Friday to say I hadn't heard anything and they told me the one coordinator was out on medical leave. Still no call as of today. I know I may be impatient but come on. If I can get on the schedule for surgery before the end of year it won't cost me anything. Argh....tap, tap tap. Sorry for the vent.....this forum provides such wonderful information and I am grateful to be a part of it.
Welcome aboard!
If it were me, I would drive to the center and attempt an intervention. Explain why you need the date and see what they will do for you. More than one chic can put a name on a schedule. Good luck!
