Procrastination

Besides the fact I have not written a new post in 2 weeks, mostly because I've been out of town and also because there's not much news- as far as hearing related news goes - I felt I'll write about whatever for writing's sake. And because I'm procrastinating and the husband isn't here to keep me "focused!" (haha).

I am taking online classes which requires I write 4 papers every 2 weeks and I am currently 5 days behind schedule. Until last monday (the 1st), I was a week ahead of schedule. But a trip to CA occurred followed up with a camping trip (in the deathly heat of AZ). And here I am... procrastinating... it's what I do best. But I always get my assignments done on time, so I'm not really worried.

On the other hand, there is still no news from Medicare about the cochlear yet. In fact, I am going to check my medicare claims right NOW and see if it's even been recieved... *checks* yup, nothing. However, although the lady told me they were submitting to Medicare because they usually approve one cochlear implant, I did receive a letter of denial for it from Tricare, which I was also told would not approve it. Yet, I had called Tricare back in February or so, and asked someone if they cover cochlear implants, and someone did say they would cover the cost if it was written off as a medical necessity by my PCM (primary care manager aka physician aka doctor on the military base aka who isn't even in the states right now). Either way, I'm gonna be taking someone's advice to contacting AB's insurance people to handle this stuff for me.
