Insurance companies are funny, yeah they are...

Mar 14, 2011

Not a big deal, but I did hear from the insurance company last week.   They had tried to reach me the day before, but the number on caller ID was an internal number only for them.  I contacted care coordination and they couldn't find out anything about my case or who tried to call.  Next day, different number calling, I did hear from a nurse there.  Why she called, I am still confused about.  She asked some questions, I gave her all my smart, well educated about WLS answers, and never did get a feeling for why she called.   She said she would send me some brochures about "weight loss".  Not surgery mind you.  She asked me 'WHEN IS YOUR SURGERY DATE'.  Can you believe it?      I need pre-approval.   I have no date until somebody says "yipee skipee".   Come on folks, work with me here.

I did call the Doctor's office to see if they had gotten any calls asking for info, but they had not.  Suggested I try to call them again 2 weeks after submittal of paperwork, which will be this Thursday (and the story goes -- so I thought it was submitted a week earlier).  Oh well.

Home now to my jammies and a cup of tea.
