Some good, some bad ...
Dec 14, 2012
A few days ago I found out that Miami Valley Hospital (where my surgery will take place upon being approved) will no longer accept the health insurance I currently have (Molina healthcare) as of January 2013. I only had to wait until February until I was finished with my 6 month diet, then I would be ready to submit to insurance. I can honestly say I was upset to hear this news. But I switched back to Caresource, whom requires a 9 month supervised diet and specific co-morbid conditions with a certain BMI. This has me worried as I do not have high blood pressure, or diabetes. I am pre-diabetic however. I also have high cholesterol, acid reflux, with the possibility of sleep apnea (haven't been tested yet) and Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome.
That was the bad news. The good news is that I will be able to submit to my insurance in May 2013. That only puts me 3 months behind of what I was hoping. Also, with Caresource you do not have to go through a Cardiac and pulmonary clearance, as Molina had requested.
Today I also had my Nutritional consultation. Last month I had my Psychologist consultation. So, next week I have my last appointment with my Psychologist and I'll receive my clearance from him.
