I just found out I've been approved!
I called my insurance company, United Health Care's Secure Horizons, to check to see where my pre-certification was in the determination process and Ross said ...
"Your good to go" ... I asked for clarification ... Just to be sure... and he said the application for pre-certification had been approved for surgery.
OH YEAH!
OH YEAH!!!
Of course my Dr's office is closed, so I have to get the "next steps" tomorrow. I am really excited (and have a bit of trepidation). On to the next part of my journey to a healthier me!
Thanks for all the support I have already received from so many of you.
All the best,
Barbara

Congratulations Barbara! Now we are both at the same place in the long line to surgery! I was approved last week but I don't have an appointment with my surgeon until June.
The big hurdle was the insurance coverage and we are over that hurdle so I guess now it's just a matter of patience...I'm trying!
