I Am Approved!!!

I just received notification that I have been approved by United Health Care!!!! My doctor sent in the infor on February 28, 2005 and with a little persistance on my part...I have already been approved. So, for anyone out there having problems with their insurance....be persistant but kind...I ended up in contat with one gentlemen that helped "push" it through to the right department.

Again...keep the faith!!

Hi Grammi! Isn't UHC great???? They approved mine in about 6 days even though they said they might need 30. Hopefully your fills will be covered as I've found out mine does. There are about 6-7 of us in our office (very large office of about 150 people) have had it done and the insurance has been great! Good luck and keep in touch! Laura
