I know you cannot wait. I had to resubmit to Cigna but I am thankful everythign came out in my favor. Do you have any idea how long you are going to be off work? I am hearing anything from 2-4 weeks. I am thinking requesting my doctors office to request 4-5 weeks and if I feel o.k. I can always have them change it later.

The doctors just sent my paper work to Cigna this morning. I am crossing my fingers that I am lucky enough to get a 6 day turn around.

Time off work is based on the individual, I plan on taking 5 weeks off from work one reason my company will pay me for it and the second reason is I would like to stay home and get use to the new stomach and eating habits that come with it. Hope this helps!:lol0:

I had no co-morbities. I believe I was approved within 5 days (including the weekend). I honestly think that the insurance person for my Doc is extremely good at her job, and made sure every piece of info that was needed was included. I called the day after submission and got the auth number, I then continued to call back everyday until I received a response.
To be completely honest I work for them, not in utilization review, but I know what it's like trying to do my job and having to pend my work until the provider submits additional info. Try not to get too frustrated, but when you call ask if they have all documentation needed, or are they waiting on something. Almost bet that if it's taking a really long time they (Cigna) are waiting for some more info.
