What's Happening & Sunday Stealing

It has been a banner week hasn't it? I have beem M.I.A. and I do apologize. I thought I'd give you all some updates. Well...therapy is going OK thank God. I'm still going three times a week. Bud, you will be happy to know that FINALLY the Wrap Lady doesn't suck anymore. My garments were ordered on Friday. Only 2 weeks, 1 day and 3hrs after I got fitted for them, but whose counting? The end result was this - I had to take matters into my own hands. I called my insurance company and put in a complaint as to why they weren't getting back to the fitter with authorization for the garments. The Wrap Lady faxed them three times. Reason...are you ready for this....you don't need authorization! Things that piss me off - 1) Why didn't the Wrap Lady call the insurance compay instead of waiting on faxes to be answered. 2) Why didn't the insurance call the Wrap Lady and let her know she didn't need authorization. As long as a letter of medical necessity and a prescription is sent in with the claim, it will be processed - BUT, it is not a guarantee of payment. I swear, you can not just get a straight answer with insurance. Anyway, I had the insurance company put me on hold and talk to the fitter (Wrap Lady's) billing person and they ordered them on "good faith" that the insurance will cover the cost. The good news is that they are "in network" and if they agree to pay for them, they will cover 85% of the allowable charges. I will be responsible for the rest. The cost is not pretty though - trust me.

My Farrow Wraps (the easier garments for me to use daily) will take 1 to 2 weeks and the Solaris night garments will take 2 to 3 weeks. I hope they come sooner!
