BC/BS reversed itself

Nov 26, 2013

After Mayo re-coded the pre-op visits from 10/7 (just changed the order of diagnosis codes), BC/BS paid at 100%. 

I spent yesterday morning back at Mayo:  more lab work, pre-admission paperwork, saw anesthesia and the surgeon.  I have been officially cleared by all of them.  The best news?  Since I have been doing a liquid diet on my own since my initial bariatric consultation in early October, I have lost over 10% of my body weight.  (More if you go from my highest weight in August.).  So - no Medifast prep and no bowel prep.  Woo hoo!

Today I have to bust out the shovel.  Our son and his girlfriend are coming for Thanksgiving.  The scary part is they are bringing their respective dogs, and we already have an English Golden.  This house should be wild until Sunday!

Happy Thanksgiving!
