[best wishes] It's 4:15am...must be at the hospital at 5:30am. Kind nervous but excited. Dr has 3 surgeries today. And of course I'm #3!

I have 7 days until I am sleeved, i can't hardly contain myself. I am ready, ready, ready.

Can you sleep march 8th sleeves? I know im not going to be able to sleep one wink.

Has anyone heard from the March 1st sleevers? Check in and let us how you are doing?

This list is awesome, glad to know that I am not the only March sleever let alone the only one for the 15th. I am so excited. Have you all been buying anything? I feel lost, should we be buying anything>

I have to do a lung clearance on Tuesday, what should I expect? On Thursday I will be doing the pre-op testing, is this just blood work?

Wow, that was just so unprofessional of BCBS. I am sorry that you had to go through this.

30 more days for me

I am counting down March Sleevers are you?

I got a call from anthem bcbs saying I'm approved. A few days later I get something in the mail saying that there is a two part approval process and that a form was going to my doctor to fill out. Anyone else have this happen to them?

Yes, I think the mail crossed so everything is good.

I don't think that my hospital will take a partial payment, they want it all upfront. Not sure if I will have it.

I live in KY but I am from MI.

Did you have to pay anything upfront? I have a 2500 deductible then its 90/10. Would I have to pay this upfront?

My surgeon office almost had to get with the person that sold the policy to my company. BCBS didn't want that and then I got an approval the same day.

I only submitted with BMI but my legs hurt and my bp is up and down so we went with that as well.

Thanks, I am so happy

My doctor only requires a two day pre-op diet. Yeah!

Haha, I think I may just skip out on the fun.

Yeah two days before me.

Same day approval, that's awesome. When is your date?

I tried to reach out to the hospital and it can take 1-2 days before they get back with me. In the meantime Anthem BCBS said that they will have to collect the deductible and be billed for the rest. I should meet my deductible with the heart and lung clearances.

[name=GENERATIONCURSECHANGER' timestamp='1360265316' post='673232] Is this a Blue Cross plan? I verify insurance eligibility for a living. Does it have anything about a coinsurance listed. One of the things you may have to do is contact customer service and check your responsibility for hospital stays and what's covered. [i have anthem bcbs]

Deductible Limit Accumulated Remaining Balance In Network Member: $150.00 $0.00 $150.00 Out of Network Member: $450.00 $0.00 $450.00 Out of Pocket Limit Accumulated Remaining Balance In Network Member: $2,500.00 $0.00 $2,500.00 Out of Network Member: $7,500.00 $0.00 $7,500.00

I just checked my deductible is $150 and my out of pocket is $2500, so does this mean I only have to pay the $150?
