I've given up hope on getting an insulin pump before school starts because I'm 99% sure the doctor won't sign off on it before we meet with her on the 22nd. After the last conversation with the pump rep, Nick, he said the insurance company was at a stand still because they needed the doctor's approval before they would even look at numbers.
The bad thing about my office is that my cell phone reception isn't the greatest. I did manage to set up an appointment with Ellee's new teacher to go over my "plan of action" for managing her T1D while at school. Shortly afterwards, I get a phone call that for some reason my phone drops, but does send it to voice mail!
It was another rep from the pump company telling me that they were able to get the cost information from the insurance company and wanted to share the cost break down with me! Really?!?! I immediately called back only to get his voice mail, so I'm anxiously playing phone tag with him!
I'm nervous and excited at the same time! I'm sure this will be quite a bit of out of pocket cost, but it will be worth it. You make sacrifices for your kids and this is no exception! And thank goodness for Health Savings Accounts!
