Thursday was a bust...the pre-cert wasn't approved Wednesday night, so I called the insurance company to try and determine if it was going to get approved. I was on the phone with them for 3 hours and all I got was basically "it's still pending". They did admit there was some information missing and that without it I probably would not get approved. The missing information was the Dr. notes from my visit within 60 days of the CT Scan, which is a problem considering I get a scan every 3 months...so there is no doctor visit within 60 days. This really ticked me off, but ultimately I got no where.
Then on Thursday morning, I get a call from the imaging center - "Your cert has been approved, we are ready to do your scan." - Are you freaking kidding me!!!! I hadn't taken the pre-meds to counteract my allergic reaction to the contrast - so we moved the scan to Friday. I also had to move my follow up from Tuesday to the 23rd.
