Battle Day


I guess I'll be updating this as the day progresses but this should be the big day.

8:00AM - Got up, made cup of peach tea. Mentally prepped a few minutes.

8:35AM - Called Blue Cross Denied Claims office, got a very nice woman who looked at what she had on file and agreed with me that much info was missing. She is going to confer with the hospital and the Dr. who originally denied the claim because the info Michelle sent was incorrect. Trying for reversal of denial, if not we appeal. She requested copy of my document.

9:30 - My mother off to fax document to Joanne at Northeast, Senator Saland's mail Albany office, Kathy in Senator Saland's Poughkeepsie office and Wendy at Blue Cross. Then she's going to personally hand a copy to the President of the hospital, the head of the ICU and the nurses. I'm on phone watch.

Blue Cross had NO (zero zip zilch) indication in his file (what Michelle updates) that he had made ANY recovery. No notice of:

He's eating solid foods, they were back in feeding tube time
He's able to sit up
He's been assisted to a chair where he sat fine
Vent is down to 35% with his levels in the high 90s

So it looks like maybe - just maybe - the nightmare of it's all about the paperwork will end soon.

More updates as they happen.
