Just curious, for all of you that have gone thru surgery, and for those going thru the insurance authorization process... How many support group meetings have you gone to before surgery?
Going to a meeting(s) is part of the requirements for my insurance (Empire BlueCross BlueShield), but the hospital where my surgery would take place (including other local hospitals here in my area) only hold them once a month at odd times like 4 or 5pm on a weekday. I dont get off work in time... but since its a requirement, I'm gonna have to take some of my vacation time

to go to one held in April. (I've already used a heap of vacation time for all my pre-surg stuff which is completed, so this is the best I can do)
Did any of you guys insurance put a requirement on the # of meetings you had to go to?
