From: The Waiting Game

Hello out there in VSG land.  I am trying to be patient playing this waiting game. I had my seminar with Dr. Feiz from Valencia, CA on 2/9 and have been waiting for my insurance approval.  I know it takes time to get everything together to send to insurance  but OMG... this is killing me.  I want this surgery so bad.  I read all the forums and try to soak up all this information like a sponge :) I heard from the coordinator that she sent my packet into Aetna last week and it usually takes 5-7 business days from submission so now I am watching the calendar and trying not to to call the office for updates every day.  Thanks for letting me vent.  I hope to be logging on very soon with a surgery date.  

 

Has anyone had Dr. Feiz do their surgery? Just curious.

 

Thanks,

Lisa

    Waiting is definitely nerve wrentching. My coordinator told me that my insurance (Anthem BC BS) usually takes the full 30 days to approve. I am hoping for a quick approval so I can finally believe this is real. Right now, it just doesn't seem like reality. Good luck on your approval!! Keep us updated :)
