Waiting....and waiting....and waiting

Oct 29, 2010

Have you ever felt like you were close yet so far away?    That's where I'm at now!  My surgeon's office has turned in my pre-cert for approval.  I found out that they (Aetna) is saying that they didn't receive any clinical data and so they've had to request it from the surgeon.  WTF?!  Why would you make me go through ALLLLL of the stuff I"ve been through and then not turn any of it in to the insurance company along with the request for approval?!  ANNNND....they turned me in for approval for a different hospital than I was told.  Grrr...fustration!  To make matters worse, they requested the materials on Monday and the program director was out of town all week.  NO one else responded to the request.  I hope this doesn't delay me another week!  I will be  if that's the case.

All of this and I'm schedule for surgery on November 15th!  2 weeks!  How in the heck will it be approved before then?  I'll be praying that it all works out in the end!  It just HAS to!
