BCBS 24 visits....so discouraging
Thanks a lot Rebecca.
Yes, that 24 visits was a long time. The only way I would have been approved by BCSBS would have been my PCP appealing on my behave, but you know how some doctors are. He was taking his own sweet time, and I never heard from him regarding the matter. So with when I spoke with the surgeon's office, she informed me that Medicaid in Illinois is more laid back regarding approval, virtually you only need your physician's recommendation, I would get approved. BCBS was my primary and Medicaid was my supplemental, and I had my employer drop me from BCBS and and now Medicaid is my primary and now I have appointment tomorrow with my surgeon. I am so excited. Hold on, cuz a change is coming.
Thanks for the wishes and good luck to you too dear. Keep me posted on you progress as I will do the same.
