I called the hospital again today and got another "we are waiting for authorization" phone call. This is getting a bit ridiculous. Who do they need to talk to to get authorization? Give me their phone number, I will call them. I don't really want to go through another weekend without getting this MRI. It has been a week. I know that is not a long time but when someone tells you you may have something really wrong, a week is a LONG time. I just want a clear answer.
Hopefully tomorrow I will have some more information!
The fevers are continuing. That is not making me happy either.
Weight Update: 180.3 yes, my weight has increased. The happy news just continues.
Until tomorrow...
It is your primary dr, or who ever ordered the MRI to get the auth. It truly only takes a minute but people are lazy and don't want to do it because it takes a few minutes. Call the office and ask to talk to office manager and explain the situation. It will get taken care of that quick. I worked in medice for years and got auths all the time. Good luck. Hope this helps.
ReplyDeleteThanks!! I am getting the MRI through the hospital and their authorization office is the SLOWEST ever! I call them every day to try to move it along but to no avail. Every day they say I am sure it will come through tomorrow. I know it takes just a minute but this office just sucks! Never again. Thanks for your help.
