This is very upsetting. The hospital did not pre-authorize the procedure? That is inexcusable. I’m so sorry that you went through all you did only to be turned away. This is grounds for a state insurance commission complaint, imho. When you’re feeling up to it. You must be emotionally exhausted.

I just wanted to let you all know what happened and that I am alright. Yes, I am quite emotionally exhausted.

The appeal process to my insurance company has been initiated. Right now it's a peer to peer review between my cardiac doctors and the insurance doctors. This has been an emotionally draining few days. I am now looking forward to a weekend without phone calls to or from bureaucracies.

Still, all life forms must ascend, into the next level, eventually.
