Hi Beth,
I had to practically hound my doctors surgery for the auth for my BA.
Mya requested auth the day after my pre op with the nurse at the Newcastle clinic.
First it was just no, , then I had to go into the surgery and pay £10 for the letter” which can take up to three weeks”, that was fine cos it was three weeks till my surgery date.
Then another call from MYA a week later, the doctors were being awkward cos more information was needed an they weren’t prepared to give it without yet another £40!
I had to go in again and pay the money,,,, the letter was sent on the Thursday before my surgery on the Tuesday!
To say I was a bag of nerves is an understatement. There was no need for all the hassle, but I would suggest you speak to your doctor’s yourself and not to loose your rag, cos that doesn’t help either.
Good luck x
