I have a date! In the oddest way! UHC new policy

So I just got off the phone with Heather and surgery is 10/31/08!!

So between my last message and this, I had called UCH to see if I in fact was approved, they said they had nothing on file.

So then I got a hold of Heather.. UHC apparently just requires you to notify them the day of surgery. The surgery type is approved and I have met all their requirements. She said there was 1 other patient right before me who also has UHC and she was told the same thing for that patient. So she spoke with a total of 6 people and each and every one of them said the same thing.?!??!?!?!?!

So I have my date and UHC will just be notified of surgery

Congratulations Beth!!!  How exciting.  Was 10/31 the first day they had available or did you choose that?  Just wondering how far out they are booking.  

I still have a month left of my supervised diet and then hopefully I will be right behind ya.

in Mycharts they gave me all my pre-op appointment dates. I called and spoke with Heather and she gave me my surgery date:)

How exciting! the very best to you. Keep us updated.

Congratulations!  Halloween, eh?  Well, what better day to get a few scars.
