Submiting To The Insurance

Today they submitted my things to the insurance company. I am so nerves and excited all at the same time. I started this process back on Jan 7 2012 and I have completed my psych eval and pre op diet/ nutritionist visits for 3 months. Those were the only things I had to do. I have stopped drinking coffee, teas, and sodas. I quit smoking in Dec of 2011 and I really don’t drink too often and when I do it is only one small glass of wine. I have been trying to eat good foods and not eating too many fatty foods or sugary foods. So from today I think it will be about one month till surgery. Wow time will fly I am sure.

I too, started all of this back in October of last year. Yesterday they sent my paperwork in for approval -

Good Luck to both of us! I just wonder how long the process will take before we know something.......

My doctors office said my insurance takes about a week maybe two but they are normaly pretty fast. I hope yours is fast as well.
