Centennial doesn't and wont take my insurance

I am sorry about that, it will work for the best. My surgeon is Dr. Westmoreland in Murfreesboro . I absolutely adore him. I think that he will take your ins., dont quote me but I am pretty sure. Also the lady that does all the ins filing is so so sweet, she is bound and determined to get everyone approved. Her name is Shanda. The # is 615-396-4965. You can also check them out on the web at http://www.mtmc.org/bariatriccare.php. I actually went to the seminar at Centennial and Southern hills aswell and decided to go with Dr. Westmoreland.

Angie: The best advice I got about finding a surgeon came from this board.  These folks have been there and are pros at knowing who is good and who isn't.  I'm at Baptist with Dr.  Spaw.  You might try his office to see if they take your insurance. This is just a bump in the road sweetie!  You will find a surgeon before you know it.  Not to worry.  I switched after I had completed all of my paperwork so just keep doing your weight loss and keep getting your paperwork together so that when you do find someone, you will be ready!   Happy 4th of July!

THANK YOU ALL!!!  I feel so much better today than I did yesterday, I've got new numbers to call and new hospitals to try and get info from. I tried using AmeriChoice website and I just couldn't use it at all, it's blocked from using my computer magnification equipment because it uses sucure site information on the pages so after I entered in all of my information and tried to go to the next page where it actually gets into their system because I was using ZOOMTEXT (it's a magnification program that is what allows me to use the computer.  Without ZOOMTEXT I would not be able to see the normal computer stuff) and the page pops up saying that the program I am using is interferring and therefore their site cannot be viewed.  So anyway I can call them tomorrow they all should be back to work. I hope everyone had a wonderful 4th of July.  Hugs to you all!

Angie,          Do not let this discourge you, just fight that much harder to find someone that will take your insurance.  Contact your insurance company by phone and you can usually give them your zip code and they can give you the name, phone numbers, and locations of WLS doctors in your insurance network.   This is just a small bump in the road and we will all help you get throught it!!
