Sic & Tired of being treated like crap!

well,I have not recieved anything from medicaid,I saw the dr the same day as  someone else who got theres last week,and ive  read many times others calling medicaid and finding out  info,so I did this,they told me there is nothing thats been turned in on me since december.....So I call and speak to sheila and she proceeded to chew me out for calling medicaid and for  bothering  her,and goes on to tell me that I have no bussiness being inpatient because  this surgury isnt like something thats medically nessacarry that its  just elective!And she claims the letter was sent to medicaid and that ill be luck to hear from medicaid  in a few  more weeks because  she is sure I made them madd calling and that they put  the ones that call on the bottom of the pile,lol...can u imagine a medical professional treating patients like this,I do not understand  anyone acting this way.I have seveer medical problems and would for sure not being haveing this surgury if it wasnt medically nesasary,nor would insurance approve it if it werent. Is anyone else dealing with this kind of crap.?

omg thats horrible... im sorry this is happening to you.  I called yesterday to make sure she got my new number and my approval letter and she seemed to be in a bad mood... i called med. like 3 or 4 times and my stuff wasnt put to the bottom so idk about that part... and i agree if it wasnt nessesary then no way they would pay for it thats why we had to go through all the pre op hoops..

Sound like if that woman doesnt like her job she needs to find another one and medicare doesnt play favorites like that they work them in the order they recieve them. That is so sad you are being treated that way you r nicer than me cause i prolly woulda went down thier face to  face and had a lil talk with her smart ass !!!!

Hey girl try not to let her get to you. she acted the same way towards me too. I think she is just over worked and unhappy. Medicaid does not get mad if you call them. I promise you. i called them every three days to find out if my stuff was sent to them. Personally I think that was her excuse to get you off her back. just my opinion but here is why. I was done with my stuff Oct 27th. My stuff was not sent to medicaid until December 10th. I was told in October at my last appointment that it would be sent as soon as I saw the cardiologist again. I did that Oct 25th and they had the report Oct 27th. So I know it does not take that long to write a letter to medicaid and send all of the stuff to get approval but I feel that they sit on stuff until they finaly get to it. Medicaid only took less than two weeks to approve my stuff. So it is not medicaid. And she told me that medicaid at the time was two months behind. HMMMM for being so behind they approved mine quickley. Anyways sorry so long winded. Just dont give up hope and keep calling Sheila and Meidicaid. If I remember right they recieved mine on the 10 but didnt put it into the computer until the 14th and was approved by the 22nd. Medicaid wont care. They get paid by the hour lol.
