Surgery is a Go!

Rachel is scheduled to have her jaw surgery on June 20, 2023. 

We have had this date for 6 months. 

Ten days ago, the surgery scheduler called to tell me that our insurance company had denied approval as it was deemed "not medically necessary". Additional records, measurements, scans, pictures, etc, were submitted. Appeals filed. Another prior authorization submitted. 

We moved forward in trusting the Lord and having faith that all this would work out and we would receive insurance approval. 

Rachel had a pre-op appointment with Dr. Garcia on Wednesday. And she had a pre-op appointment with Dr. Martin this morning, as well as a Pre Admitting Appointment where they went over all of her medical history and took blood. 

Long story short, we received word this afternoon that our insurance has re-reviewed Rachel's records and this surgery is indeed medically necessary, and they have given the approval for surgery!! 

Surgery is a go! And it's happening this Tuesday!! Thank You Lord!
