Guest guest Posted May 3, 2001 Report Share Posted May 3, 2001 Hi all. Well, I think I got some good news today in the insurance woes. I found out more about the usual and customary DS codes, so I sent a fax to Dr. 's office asking them to resubmit. And also to submit to BC/BS, because I talked to a customer service guy there and he said to definitely try it, since it is so medically necessary not " cosmetic " or just to " lose weight " . So we shall see. The nicest part was that Sandy called me from Dr. P's office to tell me she got the fax and that they'd resubmit! I was so happy to talk to her since I had felt like they really didn't care and I was totally on my own with appealing, etc. She was really nice and let me know that they'd help in any way they could. Isn't that groovy? So now I am encouraged and hoping that I can unsnarl the whole insurance issue. And am definitely feeling good about working with Dr. P's office. So we'll see...if my insurances still have problems I am preparing an additional packet of information and have sent a preliminary info form to Walter. blessings~ becki ===== Becki, near Portland, OR BMI 50-ish, age 42 pre-op DS. hoping to get approval through Aetna Traditional Choice (fighting 'investigational' denial) Consulted with Dr. on 3-13-01 psych ok, nutrition ok, beckeye_58@... __________________________________________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
