I had surgery last March, and have been slowly paying on the balance (after insurance), along with my other medical bills.

Hi, Aravis. I've been following your medical bill success with envy and amazement! Did you get your insurance to pay for any of it, and what was the turn-around time?6 weeks; 8 months? How did you negotiate when there was delayed answers from the insurance co? I have never been in a situation with an insurance company like this, and I have tried everything---letters, e-mails, phone calls, etc. Did you have it debited from your checking account? Whiz.

My surgery was pre-certified (I had COBRA insurance at the time).
