Guest guest Posted May 25, 2000 Report Share Posted May 25, 2000 Make sure your insurence is paid . My company waited 2 months. but I called them weekly just to be certain I was covered. Take nothing for granted. Also I suggest you get that packet in asap . I m not certain if he is fill till he goes on his 6 week leave.Jun 8th I belive. Maybe you'll be the first lines up on his return in Mid July. You can always postpone/delay.

Guest guest Posted May 25, 2000 Report Share Posted May 25, 2000 Dear , You are one of the VERY LUCKY ones that have approval before you go to your PCP. I have been 'here' since the end of March. Dr. Rutledge's office received my packet on May the 3rd. I am still patiently awaiting the insurance company to go through their approval process. As of this writing they still have not received Dr. R's letter of medical necessity. It was mailed on May the 10th by Barbara. They have also not received the fax of the same letter that was faxed by Barbara on the 17th and then from myself on the 23rd and 24th....sigh. It looks like your 'hard' part is over, . Keep your chin up. It takes about 3 weeks to a month to get all the blood- work, and all of your exams completed. And you DO want to be healthy to go under anesthesia. You will get there, as I will too, soon I hope....LOL. Love, > > Hi Toni, my name is . I was approved weeks ago and I have not > even seen > > DR yet.

Guest guest Posted May 25, 2000 Report Share Posted May 25, 2000 , You and I are in the same boat, kiddo. I called Cigna again today and they still have not received the fax. I am sending it overnight tonight, return receipt requested. This has been going on since April 19!!! Chin up, it will happen for both of us. I think though at this rate, I will be one of the July bunch. Maybe you can join me.... Ann > Dear , > > You are one of the VERY LUCKY ones that have approval before you > go to your PCP.
