I was scheduled by Dr Weinstein's office on Aug 17th for an Angiogram. The refferal was supposedly approved on Aug 20th. My Angiogram was was to be done today at 7:30 am My wife works foe Advocate and I am covered under her policy. On Aug 29th at 3:30 pm I received a call that my procedure was being cancelled yet I did not receive an explanation. Dr Weinstein's office staff was less than helpful as to why this was cancelled for today Aug 30th. I just got off the phone with office and now they are saying Humana Ins is the problem. Dr Weinstein has already had a peer to peer call with Humana. He has yet to receive an approval or disapproval. So here I sit NPO waiting to find out what the hold up is on someone's end. If Humana is the Insurance Provider that Advocate has chosen for their Employees and their Families I highly suggest this get reviewed. I have also contacted a Malpractice/Ins Fraud group of attorneys willing to take my case. My next step if I don't receive approval to have my Angiogram is to let them run with a lawsuit. You do not cancel a Major Procedure late in the afternoon the day before. I also have calls into all the Chicago Investigative reporters to see if they are interested in running with this issue. I am guessing I am not the only patient to have received such poor treatment after paying hefty premiums for coverage. My name is Keith Holub 7/29/1963 [protected] If I do not hear back from Advocate I will assume you would prefer I take the Litigeous/Media Investigation route. Regards, Keith Holub
