Guest guest Posted July 20, 2004 Report Share Posted July 20, 2004 Vee, Everything happens for a reason and just try to keep that thought. I'm sure you are disappointed and with reason. But try to keep positive thoughts and keep your chin up. You'll be able to possibily enjoy the end of the summer and it not be so hot for your recouperation time. I will keep you in my thoughts as you go through this waiting time. Take care. Laurette 4/23/04 open rny 309/290/245/150 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 20, 2004 Report Share Posted July 20, 2004 Vee,, This is what I am afraid of happening to me cause we have only had BC/BS since May 2004......I called a few weeks ago and they told me that there was no reason for me not to be covered at 100% after the first $100.00,,,but I'm scared to death that after they really look into it and really start trying to get an approval that they'll make me wait,,,,I have my consultation for Aug. 11........guess I'll just have to wait and see..... Just hang on ,,,,,,You'll get there,,,,and I'm sure it'll be well worth the wait !! Deitra Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 20, 2004 Report Share Posted July 20, 2004 I was on United with an exclusion and switched the company insurance to BC/BS, I was worried about the same thing, but after only being on BC/BS GA for a couple of months I was approved without a problem. Good luck to you all and hang in there Vee, I know how frustrating it is!

Guest guest Posted July 20, 2004 Report Share Posted July 20, 2004 Hi Deitra, I had to add my .02 to your post. We have BC/BS (of AL.) since 1/04 and when I called in April to make an appt. for the intial visit the Dr.'s office asked me to call and find out if there was a waiting period and also what was covered etc... before even giving me an appt. Luckly there isn't a waiting period and like yours covered at 100% after the first $100. You can call them back and verify prior to your appt. to set your mind at ease. Good luck! in AL. > Vee,, > > This is what I am afraid of happening to me cause we have only had BC/BS since May 2004......I called a few weeks ago and they told me that there was no reason for me not to be covered at 100% after the first $100.00,,,but I'm scared to death that after they really look into it and really start trying to get an approval that they'll make me wait,,,,I have my consultation for Aug. 11........guess I'll just have to wait and see.....

Guest guest Posted July 21, 2004 Report Share Posted July 21, 2004 I called this morning and they said that it will be covered at 100% and there will be no waiting period since I have no medical records of being treated for being too heavy in the past !! What a relief !! Deitra Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
