Well I finally got the phone call from my ins. I am approved. Only took 3 days to approve after 3 months of not getting my information. Turns out my insurance changed their submitting method and fax phone number for their Humanna HMO customers without letting anyone know. Coordinator at dr had been sending info as usual but it was hanging out in nowhere land. Now to see the NUT and get a surgery date.

I am approved but no set surgery date. Hoping for End of February.

Sorry to hear your having trouble. I am having the exact same problem. Coordinator says its faxed and insurance says they do not have it. This has been going on since Nov. I am having a revision from band to sleeve due to band problems and in considerable pain. Each day that passes is miserable and my coordinator does not seem to care. She hardly ever returns a phone call and when she does its like " I don't know what the insurances problem is". Claims she has faxed my records 3 times and still nothing. That rock and hard place is getting mighty uncomfortable for me.

Anyone here using Dr Schmitt have Humana Ins. Have you had any problems getting approved. I am going from band to sleeve and there seems to be a communication glitch between doctor and insurance.
Anyone from Tuscaloosa, Northport area?

I had the sleeve done almost four weeks ago as an emergency surgery when my lapband slipped
How did you know your band had slipped and who did your sleeve. I am having problems with my band and lots of pain.

Northport, AL here. Currently seeing Dr Schmitt at AWLS. I am having pain from my lap band that was placed in 2007 and will be having VSG.

I am currently getting pre approved for sleeve surgery. Wondering who else used Dr Schmitt and what to expect.

Had my band since 2008. Had revision to sleeve on 3/16/2016. The first week was difficult. Anything I drank had to be warm or was painful and yes I could feel it enter my stomach. It may be worse if you had hernia repaired. Hang in there, it will get better.
