Insurance question & MN Government

Anyone know if the Minnesota Government shuts down on July 1st, if that will lengthen my insurance appeal I put in on June 17th? I have medicaid.

Amy,, are you having a revision from RNY to DS? I  also have Medicaid and have been told that there aren't any surgeons that accept this for revision.
thanks

I was approved on July 1st from band to DS. It took 10 days to hear back from the first appeal.

Amy thats awesome congrats on getting approved.....Do you know if Dr Buchwald also does revision from RNY to DS? This is what i would need and since I have Medicaid, finding a surgeon to do the revision has been tough:)

Yes, Dr. Buchwald does revisions from RNY to DS. Where are you from?

Amy, I am from MI and more than willign to travel

Im 4 hours away, down in South West MN. You should contact his office and start by going to one of his seminars.

Thank you I will contact his office tomorrow...Wish me luck:)
