My insurance company saids my proposed date is June 16th! Yay!

I had not heard back from my dr. I phoned Anthem today. They said the dr. Just submitted my request today. However, the surgery is not yet approved. The proposed surgery date is June 16th, maybe we will be sleeved on the same day,

I'm in the same boat. According to the dr. Office they submitted everything fir approval last week.........still waiting.,....

Hang in there. It will workout.

Congrats!

I am in the same boat as you. I completed my echo today, blood work tomorrow, and then they will submit to the insurance company for approval. My insurance company does not require a diet so does anyone know how long the insurance approval process is?

I am hoping to get gastric sleeve surgery. I went to the cardiologist yesterday for a card clearance. My blood pressure was 142/90. I have to go in the am for a echo stress test. I have been freaking out because I have a feeling I will be told that I can't get the surgery due to my blood pressure. Other than being over weight, I have no other health problems. Can anyone assist me with this please!!!?!?!?

Thank you all. I'll let you know what happens tomorrow.

Oh ok. So, if your pressure is high they will work something out? That's great news! I was afraid that they were gonna deny me.

The stress test and treadmill walk is tomorrow.
