The Daily Factoid - Telephone Calls

Remember the doctor’s office lady?  Remember how she was supposed to call the next day (that was December 1st, for those of you keeping track), after talking to my insurance company?  I thought I’d be polite and give her a little extra time.  I called the office yesterday and spoke with her.  She advised me that she hadn’t called my insurance company yet.  No sirree.  My leg getting weaker, losing bladder function, huge herniated disc...that apparently means nothing.  So, she said she would call the insurance company today and call me back.  She made sure to ask me if I’d be home, as if that mattered.  Did she call today?  NOPE.  I may have to contact my surgeon’s office and see if they can do something about this.  I’m supposed to get this injection to find out if I need the surgery in January.  If I don’t get the injection, that screws up the surgeon’s schedule.  Well, and mine.

The more important a phone call is, the less likely it is that you will receive said phone call.

  1. For me, it’s the longer you have been waiting for a phone call, the greater the likelihood it will come during the 2 minutes you’re away from your desk in the ladies’ room.

  2. That’s it!  Give me the number and I will call and cause all kind of trouble.  I am not kidding. I will tell them I am your sis and that your condition requires attention NOW.  Let’s get this over with.  I expect a phone call from you today Ms. Nancy and you can tell me exactly what you want me to say.  ENOUGH IS ENOUGH.

    Missed you guys last night it was super cool hearing the kids play.  More about that later.

  3. I’m really hating that doctor’s office on your behalf.  It takes a lot of energy to be calling every hour, but I think that’s what I’d be doing right now.
