I called the number on the letter I got from my insurance that "denied" clearance for me to stay in the hospital post op. They were very nice and said they just needed more info. The woman informed me that there is a Peer to peer medical review board where if they surgeon calls the number she can speak to the medical review doc herself and explain what exactly will be done and why I need to stay in the hospital overnight. I called the surgeon's insurance person and passed on this info. They said they were already getting things together to be on top of it. I am happy that the surgeon has someone who is nice and willing to do what needs to be done. I know some surgeon's don't have someone so awesome. I am just trying to get myself together to be healthy as possible and ready for when I get cleared for lower surgery.
Today was a good day and life goes on!
