Hello. I am looking for anyone who lives in NY that has Fidelis NY insurance. I was wondering how long it takes them to approve surgery after all paperwork is sent in! Thanks!!

I have all my requirements done but mental health! Drs. office forgot to send paperwork to them so still waiting for appts! I have heard a lot of different stories about the evaluation and was wondering what it consisted of. I have no mental health issues so I hope I do fine! -

Took my 565 question t or f test and go this Thursday for the results of that! Then just have to wait for surgeon to contact me with appt. Does anyone know if they usually schedule surgery date before insurance is approved? I have heard a few on here say they had date before approval! Was just wondering, getting anxious to get this done! -

types of multi-vitamins
Judy A Travis replied to tlc0u's topic in Protein, Vitamins, and Supplements
I am supposed to start taking the calcium citrate w/ magnesium now before my surgery and am trying to find a reasonable place to buy them. A lot of places require you take two at a time which isn't a savings and I also have to take a multi vitamin plus 2 vitamin d a day so any info would be appreciated! THANKS! -
Can you use crushed ice as a source of water so u aren't drinking so fast?

I have been doing the Fidelis requirements since February! I had to go to meetings and have an ekg, stress test blood work, 6 visits with nutritionist and am finishing up 3 trips to mental health then have to get clearance from my PCP and then back to surgeon for surgery date! Have to go through lots of hoops to get there but it will be worth it! -
Congrats to you! I went to my first mental health apt yesterday! Have my true or false test there next week and one more apt with them after that, then hopefully back to my surgeon for a surgery date! Fingers crossed!!!

I haven't had my surgery yet but want to stock up on stuff! Can we have the protein shakes that mix with milk or just the ones that use water?

Thank you! I have heard that where I live we have to make 3 visits to MH! I am going to call them today to see if they got my paperwork straightened out! I am going to ask them then what their requirements are. Quite a process but will be well worth it!
