Guest guest Posted July 18, 2000 Report Share Posted July 18, 2000 Hi all... I feel like I just had my balloon burst and need to vent. *grumble* I got the letter from my insurance denying me coverage because, as they see it, 1. I've only recently developed hypertension and 2. the pain in my foot was due to a fractured sessamoid bone (which *I* seriously feel wouldn't have happened if I wasn't this much overweight.) SHEESH! So, I'm fighting the " medically nessicary, " BS. But.... I do have my sleep study on August 6th... when we have documentation of sleep apnea I'll have more ammunition. I'm going to all the podiatrists this week to ask them to write me a letter to submit stating that the reason I had a fracture in my foot is my being overweight for so long. Anyway.... not giving up, I'm just mad as H*ll and going to win this! If all else fails, I have the self pay funds in savings, but I'd much rather use that for college! Jenn in Vancouver, WA Firing up the drums, and doing the Insurance company war dance right now. ________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
