PCP finally got on the ball..

Oct 16, 2009

Got a call from my PCP this morning.  The administrative assistant had the letter I had been nagging the dr. for and was sending it today.  That only leaves the clearance from the psychologist.  Which may already be there.  I'll call Monday to find out if my chart is complete or not.  Then if they still don't have the psych eval I'll ask the therapist for it on Tuesday when I see him for the follow up.

Also called my insurance again last night.  When I called them the first time I didn't have the "diagnostic codes".  Which just turned out to be the code for morbid obesity. Umm.. yeah.  It's a medical requirement to have a BMI of 40 +, so you'd think morbid obesity would be assumed at that point.  Anyway, I gave them the code for morbid obesity and high cholesterol.  Both were paying codes.  So I know the surgery will be paid as long as I meet their requirements, which are pretty basic.

Starting to feel hopeful...
