Guest guest Posted July 6, 2000 Report Share Posted July 6, 2000 I had the MGB surgery on June 9th and today got a statement from my Blue Cross BS of Florida saying that this surgery isn't covered. I have in my hand a letter stating according to procedure code 43846 that I was covered I call them and they said it was covered, I spoke to another girl that has the same insurance as I and she was covered by the same code. Anybody else have this happen. IM freaking out. IM waiting to call Monday cause IM leaving on vacation tomorrow and I have real bad PMS because IM off hormones and I don;t want to say things I need not say. Help!!!!!!!!! Love, from Florida Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 7, 2000 Report Share Posted July 7, 2000 , Wow that just goes to show everyone what a pain in the royal caboose the insurance companies can be. They WILL pay for your surgery since you have proof of the other MGB'er. Congratulations on that. Were you self-pay?? If they still say no I would contact a lawyer. You have a case to fight this. You are in my thoughts and prayers. Good Luck and may God be with you every step of the way. Lara Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
