YIPPEE!!!!
Hi Everyone!!
For all of you that don't know....My surgery was denied last week and have been working on an appeal...so long story short...I called the insurance company at 4pm today and asked where they were at on the appeal and she told me she hadn't even submitted me yet....I was originally working with a guy and apparently when he transfered me he to her he did not tell her to expedite the appeal. She said she would get it sent out today for another bariatric surgeon to review. I told her surgery is scheduled for Tuesday and she said we could hope to hear back Monday.....UGHHHH!!! So I called Dr Rupps to change my surgery date because we are outta time. I still haven't told work because I wanted to know I was approved!!!.....so at 5:05 the girl called me back and said I was approved!!! Im approved!! I was in the car and lost it!!! Im approved!! Now I have to decide if Tuesday is still the day or if I should do it in Dec. I am going to tt my boss tomorrow and see what he would prefer. I have kept everything UTD so not much of my own work to do. I am mostly doing new projects for him. What do you guys think??
Yippee!!! I'm approved!! Did i say I am approved!! I gotta keep saying it so I know its real...
Thanks so much to all of you for your support and well wishes!! They did the job!
