Ugh. Insurance should not be a for-profit business. They make money only when they deny us.

As promised, the Executive and her team did fast walk it through and I was approved for surgery on Monday morning and my surgeon will be replacing my knee on Wednesday. But how many patients know how to move the levers of power like I did.
I know knee replacements are supposed to be tough but I have a great surgeon and I have set myself an aggressive target. My golf course closes for overseeding on October 6th and reopens November 7th. My target is to be able to play golf by then.

I had my Total Knee surgery approved, had my surgery and then after the surgery they decided to deny it. It was a complete mess and terrifying to go through.

And did you see that some companies are using AI to approve or disapprove claims? It’s bad enough that a doctor who doesn’t know us and our history gets to decide our fate, but AI?
