Still No Approval

Tweet

My first appointment for dentures was back in February. They said at the time they would need to get approval from Medicaid, which normally takes about a month, to proceed. When I went back last month after six weeks, they still hadn't had approval. They told me to call before I went to this appointment - I did three times - and the last time they told me to keep the appointment. I got there today and my dentures still don't have approval after two months. The only thing I can think of why there isn't approval is that I'm trying to get my six month review done, but I didn't get the info back in time because my dad passed when I needed to have the docs to them. I turned them in yesterday, late, but they're turned in. According to the last letter I saw from Social Services, I had 60 days without needing to start the process all over again. It was only a week late, and still in the same month. I hope that's the reason for why it hasn't been approved yet. Otherwise I have no idea why I haven't been approved for dentures. The good thing was the dentist still did what was necessary to get the process moving along so I will get my dentures on time. His assistant told me if they haven't called me within three weeks to call them. Only if they have the approval will I get my next appointment. The good news is that I only have two more appointments before I have my dentures. When I started this process, I was told I would have them in May. That's not going to happen if I haven't gotten the approval yet. Now it looks like June. I just hope I have them in time for my birthday in July. So that was my day - two hours to Milwaukee and two back, plus a bite to eat on the way home. It was a woman driver - Hmong and we chattered the whole way back. I read on the way down. She was terrific. We laughed allot on the way back. So now I'm home and I better get busy interacting. My bank has only moved .04 all day. How was your day? Thanks for reading.
