    Why were you denied the first time. Reasons. I have the same insurance and i had to resubmit too. my docs office emailed me wednesday and said they have everything now and is going to resubmit.

    I was never denied, after 3 weeks of waiting and calling and then telling me they didn't have my paperwork it had to be resubmitted bc they told my surgery coordinator to do it one way and then after the fact they said that wasn't the right way! So they resubmitted last Thursday, Friday it was already being reviewed, Monday my surgery coordinator had to send clinicals and today I called and it was approved.

    All of my paperwork had to be resubmitted, bc my surgery coordinator was told one thing and then was told protocol was changed . I had a similar incident trying to get my cpap machine. So I knew something was not right, now to wait some more.

    Guys are you tired of my whining yet? So the latest I called insurance again today and they still aren't showing my paperwork on their end. I emailed my surgery coordinator again today bc I hadn't heard from her since she said she would call them yesterday, I asked her if she had heard anything about what is going on and she said she was still waiting for my insurance to return her call. OMG what is going on!!!! Where the heck is my paperwork we are working on week 3 and I have absolutely no clue what is going on

    Ugh!!! How annoying!! Very similar situations were going through! Hope this nightmare ends soon for both of us!! I'm so tired of waiting!
    It's not the waiting that's bothering me it's the fact I can't get a straight answer as to what is going on with my paperwork, I just want to hear they have my paperwork.

    I'm curios to know how long did it take for the insurance to approve you? I have Empire BCBS also

    Sorry can't help you, they are still saying they haven't received anything for me from my surgery coordinator. My surgery coordinator told me today she called them and she is still waiting on a return call, just sounds strange to me!

    Well after 4 emails to my surgery coordinator, she finally replied and said it could take up to 30-60 days before we heard anything, my response was that I understood that, but insurance is still saying they haven't received my paperwork for approval and it's been 2 wks! She then replied she would call them today and let me know what they say...guess who didn't hear from her ????

    My surgeons office called and stated they submitted to Insurance yesterday. I plan on calling tomorrow to validate. I was told that the insurance company has 2 weeks to make a decision. They also said I am on target to still have surgery on 3/16. Nothing like waiting until the last minute. 21 days and counting..With a big maybe in my mind- due to pending approval.

    Still nothing for me emailed the coordinator Monday, and she has yet to reply, which makes me that more frustrated!
    Call your insurance company find out the status from them. Sometimes the call to insurance company pushes them to review your documents and decide.
    Calling them back tomorrow for the 3rd time.
