Insurance companies...SUCK

So we've been dealing a lot with the insurance companies. Since I'm not a full time student anymore, I don't get to be on my parents' insurance...dang it! So I had to start buying COBRA. So we got all the paperwork and filed it etc.

And we were supposed to be getting a packet but we never got it...and we're closing in on my surgery date, and my surgery scheduler is flipping out. They didn't want to see me for my pre-op if I wasn't covered eventhough it would be retroactive! UGH! So of course all of her flipping out on me, makes me flip out to mom...not directed at her, but sharing my frustration with her!

So Mom called our insurance lady who emailed her the paperwork and we faxed it in. But my surgery scheduler is STILL flipping out. So I continue to be all stressed out with Mom about it. So she takes action, this is why I love my mom...lol She calls up Blue Shield, pretending to be me (which I have given her permission to NUMEROUS times re ins companies) and talks to some chick and tells her what's going on and she told Mom to send a letter saying why it needs to be expedited etc. Of course this is perfect for Mom in all her letter writing awesomeness...so she did, and faxed it over. This was Friday.

Today, Mom got a call saying they had my subscriber number! YAY! SO I called up my surgery scheduler and was like what now!? hahaha So everything is still on THANK GOD! I knew that one way or another God would take care of me. I was just glad that His perfect timing matched mine...lol

So tomorrow I get to be x-rayed some more, go over the labs that I got done Friday and talk about what exactly is going to be done, recovery time, drugs (hopefully good ones lol), and yeah. I'm pretty excited!
