Merry Christmas from Kaiser

[Jackie]

I just received a call from QAS telling me that Kaiser has approved my Monitor. The only problem is that QAS had sent forms for ProTime and I would rather get the In-Ratio. This is the right one, RIGHT? QAS is sending papers for the In-Ratio tomorrow. I have notified Kaiser, my PCP and his nurse, that they are coming. I could of had the ProTime by Tuesday, but decided to wait for the OK on the In-Ratio.

I just can't believe that this has happened, I really thought all my work would be in vain. I am the first person in this area to get this accomplished. I have the Heart Replacement Forum to thank.

THANKS AGAIN FOR ALL OF YOUR HELP

MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL

Hi Will,

Did you request the In-Ratio? I am wondering why QAS would send papers for the ProTime, isn't this the old monitor?

Thanks for the Cheer

Woo hoo!!! Congrats!

ProTime has a newly revamped monitor. It looks a little sleeker, but is the same size as the old one and still uses those stupid cuvettes where you have to drop your blood into a little cup and pray you don't get an air-bubble error message. I had a ProTime and was grateful for it because it allowed me to home test. Now I have the INRatio and it is so much better, smaller and easier to test on.
