Today was supposed to be my CT scan, but when I went in to the imaging center to get the procedure done, I was told the insurance company refused the pre-authorization. The medical records clerk brought me back and we got on the phone with the insurance company to try and get the issue resolved. During the discussion the company approved my abdomen scan with contrast, but ultimately they continued to refuse my chest scan. They said they needed additional clinical information before they would approve it. I guess stage 4 lung cancer isn't sufficient.

If this wasn't so frustrating it would be down right laughable. (And, given that it isn't inconvenient to you the reader, feel free to laugh - because it is just so absurd).
