Content Curator/HadIt.com Elder Vync Posted November 26, 2019 Content Curator/HadIt.com Elder Share Posted November 26, 2019 If this is your first time getting setup with a provider, either your initial provider or a referred provider, it can take a couple of extra weeks for them to get everything setup. Once approved, you'll only be approved for the kinds of treatments allowed by the VA. Ironically, after a few weeks of being in therapy TriWest will send you the list. You can call and they will tell you the details. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HadIt.com Elder Buck52 Posted November 26, 2019 Author HadIt.com Elder Share Posted November 26, 2019 (edited) broncovet,No Tri west needs to send the paper work to my private Dr so they can start my treatment I been approved from VA and Tri West...Tri west is dragging their feet in processing this consult. if Tri west would send my private Dr the paper work to include the Approval I could start treatments. but Tri West will not cooperate with my private Dr. the Physical therapy Center. it boils down to my private Dr physical Therapy center wants confirmation they will pay the bill. and I don't blame them for that. before they start the treatment.

Yes I have been approved and a list has been sent the Dr I chose is on the list , there should not be a problem with Tri West sending the paper work my private Dr has ask for and also confirmation on the health care approval...this has been going on now for almost 2 months I am running out of time for the care I need to fix my hand other wise surgery is the only other way to fix it. which I am trying to avoid.

Content Curator/HadIt.com Elder Vync Posted November 26, 2019 Content Curator/HadIt.com Elder Share Posted November 26, 2019 I had the same problem. I called TriWest and they had the approval, so they asked me to get the fax number to my doctor's office. I got it and called TriWest. They faxed it over and I was able to see the doc the next day.
