Nothing is Easy

What is the hold-up people?  It's so annoying that despite doing everything correctly and on-time, others won't ever see your case (or your kid, or your issue or whatever) as being as important as you do and won't be compelled to as hard as you would if it were within your control.  *sigh*

I contacted my Surgeon's office on Friday to give his Assistant the final 'go ahead' to contact insurance to get pre-approval.  It was the first possible day I could have done it (first moment everything was complete on my end).  She was out sick and then yesterday, Monday, was a Holiday.  Call today and she's out again, no she's not sick, they aren't sure when she's coming back.  Um, excuse me?!

So now someone else, who has never heard of me, has to call me back and be told my entire story (again) and I just have to hope that they do everything correctly.  This will be 3rd person I've dealt with (original girl is on maternity leave, fill-in girl is apparently a total flake and now this as-of-yet-unnamed third person).  Serenity now!


Not only that but I also had a bad reaction to the BP meds I was prescribed (terrible blinding headaches) so I had to contact her for a new Rx.  Oh and she only sent in one refill and not the other.  So, can she please do that too, thanks.

I feel like I'm 75 years old and my life revolves around doctors and insurance.  It's starting to wear on me.

20 Days to go (you know, assuming someone calls me back and someone sends my shit to insurance tout de suite).
