Title: Surgery coverage - approved
Post by: Missy~rmdlm on February 20, 2014, 10:16:52 PM
Yes I got notification today that my SRS surgery is being covered. I'm being overly giddy...I did a little dance at the restaurant I was at when the email came across my phone. It's mostly my point that this is from the same company that had a specific exception for all TS treatment when I started just a few years ago. Poof that exception disappeared without explanation a few years ago, and in fact they have never turned down a TS claim I have submitted. I am following all SOC guidelines, and things have progressed nicely, I know this has been the case for other women too in very different circumstances than mine.
I just just note to be consistent and persistent and it seems that progress is being made.
In an oddball note, I am in a very conservative area, and it doesn't matter.
