Topic: RE: MEDICAID AND MEDICARE SURGEONS LIST!
Just a reminder for all Medicare subscribers:
Medicare ONLY accepts programs and surgeons who are designated as Centers of Excellence. I've seen several postings here mentioning programs that do not have this designation. I regularly see patients who have been through all the testing and prep only to be turned away because they are denied coverage for surgery at these non-COE programs.
If this is your situation, please feel comfortable in contacting my offices and we will do our best to expedite your surgery at Middlesex hospital in Middletown. We have been providing bariatric care since 2001 and were one of the first programs in the country to be recognized as a center of excellence.

Hi- hope your surgery does happen. However, I am unaware of Waterbury hospital having been recognized as a center of excellence. Only certified COE programs are acceptable to Medicare.
If things dont work out, give my office a call and we can try to expedite surgery for you at Middlesex.
Best of Luck,

Topic: RE: The Big E
LOL, I want to go but am sooooo afraid of the food. Damn, feel like walking (70 pounds lost since May), but the crazy food is making me afraid of that kind of outing (not that I have been perfect, take OH in New Orleans for example)!!
