Day 18 - Health Insurance
The hospital manager called us. She had worked with the Neonatal specialist and the health insurance to take care of the insurance denying approval for the claim. Apparently the whole issue went high up within the health insurance organization before it got worked out. According to the manager the insurance would contact us to confirm that they are approving the charges for the baby intensive care nursery.
We felt relieve. The fear of an extremely high health insurance bill had stressed us a little bit and this now was really good news. Still - we will feel more comfortable when all this stuff has been taken care of. We also received a letter from the anesthesiologist with an informational invoice. At this time they were only verifying the insurance information to file the actual claim. Did you know that an epidural during labor and C-section cost a total of $2,300.00 USD ? That is probably for about 1.5 - 2 hours of work. I am working in the wrong business .....
Our nights are still short and I am still amazed how long I can stay awake. I even noticed that the instant coffee that I bought shows the following on the lable: "Eye-opening Aroma". I can confirm - this coffee made strong enough keeps me going. Currently I am working about 3-4 hours a day remotely for my employer. I am also working 4-5 hours for my own business. The rest of the time is filled with baby related stuff and sleep. I always feel tired and every 3rd day I need a nap to survive.
