Guest guest Posted May 12, 2000 Report Share Posted May 12, 2000 Well my appeal was denied. I hate my insurance company! They told me they just wanted the names of the people at the two different docs office who can distinguish that the MGB is different from the Rny Procedure. I gave them that and so much more and informed them that I hope they would not find another reason not to deny me. Well now they say that the MGB is experimental and investigational. I tried to rationalize with the rep. he was symapathetic but he virtually has no power. He said he will try to get their doc to phone me.(I doubt it) I feel so down. I was trting to stay optimistic but I think this might never happen. Has anyone any heard of getting approval with a second appeal? My second appeal will allow me to go face to face with them and have Dr.R on the phone(If he will do that) It is so much work and stress. I know their trying to wear me down so I will have the doc in nj do it. I need to gather more data to support my claim that this surgery is not experimental. I told them over 500 should show that, but I think I need more. Any ideas? Thanks jen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
