[@NYDriver74]

Hi! I also work from home and I am originally from New York but now living in Arizona. I’ve been at the same job for 12 years but I’ve only been working from home since 2019. I cannot tell you how much I love it. I’m new to your channel and I also see little items that are you you are a K-pop fan because I saw Shooky and The Rose I am also a fan of BTS and I just saw the rose last year. Working from home I also do shower at night and this is a big change for me because I always did it in the morning before I went to the office.

[@ChanelQ_]

Yes that wfh life is truly great and I love that for you! What made you move from New York to Arizona?! That’s such a huge change. I’m ready to wrap New York life up as well lol. And I like kpop but I wouldn’t call myself a huge fan hehe. I just have been learning korean since 2009 and love the culture and all their stuff is so cute!

[@NYDriver74]

@@ChanelQ_ I went from NY to VA to FL and now AZ. VA and FL were for work (still same job) but my husband was born and raised on AZ so here now working from home. I went to Korea last year for 3 weeks and it was an amazing trip! Where do you want to go after NY?

[@ChanelQ_]

Wow Korea is amazing. I went for a month too back last year. Loved it! And Arizona sounds nice. Even tho I know it gets super hot I would love to see Phoenix! And I’ll be visiting Canada a few times this year. I definitely wouldn’t mind living in Toronto or Vancouver if it wasn’t so expensive. We shall see 🫶🏾

[@rita0230901]

New subbie here! I really enjoyed this vlog. I’m a AR rep for a provider and my job consist of calling insurance companies to check status of claims. Seeing your side of things is pretty cool. ❤ I also listen to Lofi while working, it really helps me get through the work day at home.

[@ChanelQ_]

Lofi really is a life saver, I use it while cleaning too. Love that you can relate. We ppl in insurance be fighting for our lives sometimes. Thanks for watching 🫶🏾

[@mslanette1972ify]

Hi Chanel, I also work for a major insurance company in Philadelphia. I work in the call center for 6 years. I like it but is trying to leave. I agree with the authorizations the provider puts the bare minimum on the Auth for approval. The members call8ng us asking why. But you have explained the process for the Auth department giving me a better understanding of how it works. I work from home also. Can only providers submit auths it can members submit them.

[@ChanelQ_]

Hi hun thanks for watching n are you also an authorization specialist? I love philly. I am actually born and raised in Chester Pa which is nearby. And only providers can submit to us. Whether that’s a dr or a facility that provides DME.

[@mslanette1972ify]

@ChanelQ_ Thanks for replying. I'm in customer service on the phones helping people. With medical benefits.

[@lavishawakenhairinc.8058]

[@ChanelQ_]

Girl welcome, thanks for watching. I don’t have a license and you don’t have to have one to do this job either which is nice. I want a three day so bad but these corporate rules are so stupid. lol you could totally do this job for sure e

[@kimswrld5321]

Your braids are beautiful hun

Ty 🫶🏾

[@michelleb8559]

lol. Custom molded orthotics (inserts and arch supports) are a pain in my side. We get so many orders for these and I am on the other end…I am the person submitting to get the approval. I also submit for other services but those orthotics are a true pain and not worth the man power. TFS

[@ChanelQ_]

girlll exactly...the word orthotics makes me shutter haha. thanks for watching

[@princessjonah3175]

Details on your desk and chair please?

[@ChanelQ_]

Hey there I linked both in description for you :) Desk is from Amazon and chair is from ikea!

[@lovethompson]

Ok I have to know are your plants real in the back If so … how did you get the monstera to grow so large 😅. I have one and it’s small .

[@ChanelQ_]

Yep they’re def real’ Thank you And I use the plantn app! Well at first, then I stopped using it lol. And started just taking care of them. I only water like once every few months, and give plant food in spring/summer time. The bird of paradise needs to be replanted tho, it’s currently trying to die on me. And I scored that monstera from Walmart for $25 when it was just like five leaves!

Any advice for ppl who are trying to find a wfh job? Ive been trying to find one for a while and no luck.

Hey there I’ve only been doing this two years in April of this year. 🙏🏾

[@teenaapperson5880]

Good morning! How can I get into this type of position? I don't have insurance experience. I was a librarian. Do I need a cert or experience? I prefer to work from home but but I'm not locked in :) Thank u

[@ChanelQ_]

Ahhh actually being a librarian sounds like so much fun. I love books. But I bet it’s different from the outside looking in. And my job isn’t hiring right now but if they do I’ll def update you guys in a video. I will be doing a wfh video this week about how I find wfh jobs/how to find. Stay tuned and thanks for watching !

[@steffiejoe]

Ten authorizations per hour, wow what happens if you get caught up justifying the need? I am kinda familiar with medical necessity and service justifications and at times they can be time consuming.

[@ChanelQ_]

Great question, we just keep going Only we don’t have to go as fast as! If that makes sense?

[@adannadooley7521]

I work from home and I submit the authorizations and do claim research I just need a routine and find something to keep me awake I tend to get sleepy lol is your job hiring

[@ChanelQ_]

Sounds really similar to what I do! That’s awesome and no sadly we aren’t currently but I will def let the channel know when we do!
