  1. March 13th for me! Good luck everyone!
  2. Thanks, I will. Hopefully I will know sometime next week! Surgery is less than 3 weeks away. Just can't believe the pre-cert is so last minute :/
  3. I am currently waiting for approval as well. I have been in a program since Jan 2013. I've gone through all the steps needed. I just had my last appointment with the surgeon. Had my presurgery consult and filled all the meds I will need for after surgery. My surgery date is March 13th and I start my 2 week pre surgery liquid diet Jan 28th. However, I had my regular monthly appointment and the nurse told me that they will be sending in the paperwork for the pre cert for the surgery sometime next week. I thought I was already approved!! I don't understand why they would schedule surgery and give me medications and stuff before knowing the insurance will approve the surgery. I guess I will be calling tomorrow to find out. I will be so mad if I went through all of this and the insurance doesnt pay for the surgery.
