I got approved!!!
Can you believe it? After two denials from CIGNA I finally got approved! I'm so happy!!!! When the phone rang I was sitting with two co-workers and I told them it was someone from Baptist calling. We all three bowed our heads and said a prayer before I answered the phone.
The caller had such a lovely voice..."Hello Freddie, this is Amy from Dr. Spaw's office and I have some good news! You've been approved!" We all cheered and cried and hugged! It was a great moment!
Thanks to everyone who has been so supportive when I was about to give up. This time I am coming to the luncheon because now I know that I REALLY get to join the loser's club!!!
Big Smile!
Freddie

P E A C E - It does not mean to be in a place where there is no noise, trouble, or hard work. It means to be in the midst of those things and still be calm in your heart.
Okay now...we are all in this group together. Who is your surgeon? I think the key to approval was the documentation my PCP turned in (on my third try.) Dr. Spaw's staff was fabulous!!! I can't say enough good things about them. They knew exactly how to get through the process and were willing to work with my PCP. Once I turned everything in, they checked with CIGNA daily and then let me know what was going on. What a Godsend! Can you tell that I am happy to be with Dr. Spaw? Be patient and just don't accept defeat!!! Where there is a will there is a way!!!
:) Big ole smile!
