Talking Submitting to insurance

Well I got the letter from my Ortho, found out I have Osteoarthritis in both knees. It will help toward the insurance since losing weight will help. There is no cure for it and now I am on an arthritis medicine. He told me I am too young for knee replacement. I faxed his letter to the insurance office. They still don't have the PCP letter so I will call them Monday and get that letter over there ASAP. I told them to submit to the insurance, got tired of their crap. So she told me I need to get the letter there by the end of the week. It will take them a week to put the file together. Then it is off to the insurance, and the waiting game begins. Please say a prayer, or wish me luck. Since they are against me already lol with telling me I will be denied. Thanks all.

Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

Sorry you are having such troubles with getting the paper work in, just keep on top of it. I hope that it all goes smoothly from here on out.
