I think I'd go down there, personally. I had problems with medical records and had to hand deliver some stuff, so I feel your pain. I had all my pre-op requirements done in a month but it took like 2.5 to get submitted to insurance because of the idiocy.

I wish I new more. I'd call and talk to Beth. I think you might be able to go to DRH and see if they have an ombudsman for the program that can work with you to help you resolve these issues and get things moving. I know that Dr. DeMaria is the director of the program, but I don't really know the hierarchy above him.

Call patient relations at Duke they were a big help with me getting my records transfered.                                         Annie

(((((Mary)))))  My number one question to everyone @ DUKE has been "How do I make sure I get before the medical review board-ASAP." and their stock answer is "We'll take care of it." Now I know how they "take care of it!!"" Hope you get some action tomorrow!!! Kelly :)
