Cautiously Optimistic...
Jul 22, 2010
Last Friday, July 16th, my documentation was submitted for insurance pre-authorization. This afternoon, my surgeon's office called to tell me that the insurance company needs ONE more documentation....a dietitian consultation. When I checked on my insurance requirements early on this process, I was informed that this was not necessary. Apparently, now it is. So....like a good compliant patient-to-be, I scheduled an appointment with my dietitian for Monday, July 26.I asked the coordinator from the surgeon's office the following question...."is it safe to assume that once I have this last document, that the insurance will grant pre-authorization?" She replied "yes, I would think so!"
I'm cautiously optimistic....I want to be celebrating, but I don't want to get my hopes up....JUST YET! However, I feel closer to realizing my goal by the minute! I'm sure you all can understand these feelings!
Stay tuned.....and prayers for speedy approval!
