Going out of network Sandy in CA

[Guest guest]

HI Sandy Ihope your feeling better today. Do you have a case worker

through your insurance company? If you dont, then give them a call and

ask about it. The reason why I say that is because if a person has a

condition and suitable physicians are not in their current network the

pt can request a group or team that is out of network. A case manager

can facilitate that much easier then a pt. Case managers are often

time nurses and are far more understand then pencil pushers.

I was told by my insurance co that I would not be allowed to go to

Cincy for the surgery, just a few weeks before I was scheduled. My

doctor here called them, they assigned me a case worker and within 2

days the entire surgery was approved and that was a very very expensive

surgery and lengthy hospital stay. I paid more for my daughters used

car then I what have to pay to that hospital, and that aint much.

Give it a shot, it certainly cant hurt to check it out.

Warmly,
