Just a lil update/documenting from my end of the process.
Well I got the approval from the review judge on August 31st 2010. Hummm, I'm waiting on the finale letter so I can go see the WLS surgeon. Well lets see its been over a month whats going on??!!!
I called Medicaid to see what the hold up was and, low and behold they never received the letter from the review judge. I did some poking around and decided to call the Board of Appeals. I got lucky and was able to speak with a supervisor. It turns out the Lawyer for medicaid was suppose to fax/send the review to medicaid. The supervisor even looked up my case and told me that Trudi ***** was in charge of that. She told me to call her and see what the hold up was.
Soooooo I called and left a message and got a return call the next day. I explained to her that the review/approval needs to be sent to Medicaid so they can process the proper papers to get me in to see the surgeon.....
Grand Fennel....wait for it !!!! wait for it!!!!
She asked me if I knew the Fax number to Medicaid BAAHAHAHA. OMG! To much for me to handle. I gladly gave her the Fax number and held back my amusement. God bless her soul. I have faith in her. I do!
It is Monday Oct 4Th 2010. I think I might call Medicaid and see if they received the Review. After all it has been over a month ~cry~
