First Small Step

This would seem like a small step for most people, but I have been waiting months for this day! Now that my new insurance has taken effect, today was my first chance to finally talk to someone at the insurance company to verify coverage and to request entry into their Bariatric Services program. Once I had the coverage verification, I completed the last paperwork for my doctor and rushed my "inch thick" package to the post office to get it into the mail ("priority mail" - no less!). I am supposed to have a case worker from the insurance company call within two days to register me into the bariatric program. I am going to be devistated if I end up having my application for bariatric surgery denied by the insurance company! I'll keep praying and keep my fingers crossed!
