Hate the wait and the weight even lol

My insurance company received my papers requesting approval the 13th of March. They can take between 7-14 business days to approve or deny the surgery. I have been calling them everyday praying that they would approve sooner. I really hate having to wait on them to know for sure if I am going to get to have my surgery on April 9th or not. I have BCBS of Tennesee. Does anyone else have it? I feel like I am going to loose my mind waiting!

    I have BCBS of AZ and they approved it 1 week to the day after it was sent in. They told me they had 30 days to review it. If all of your papers were in order, they'll approve it. I was freaking out because my surgery is scheduled for March 28th and the papers were sent in on March 1st approved March 8th. Good luck to you!!
