Awesome! Good luck to you!

I'm the 21st in Alabama! Starting preop diet Monday!

Hope you're doing well!

I'm in too! I'm in Alabama...surgery date 12/21!

According to my insurance that they didn't get any of the needed information. Like pcp approval, nutritionist visits, and whatever else I forget but my surgeons office said they sent everything in. So I am just so confused and upset. Same thing happened to me. Doctors office didn't make sure everything was received and it wasn't so I waited two weeks and was denied. Then had to resubmit and wait 30 more days on an appeal. Thankfully this all happened to me back in October -November and I got approved December 2. I feel your pain there's nothing in the world worse than trying so hard to make a positive change then being shot down on a technicality!! Praying it works out for you!!

I'm in Alabama but I also have BCBS of IL. My approval process was pretty straightforward since all they require is a nut visit and a psych visit! At least, that's all my particular plan wanted. Call the number on the back of your card when you get it and talk to them. They've got some of the best CSRs I've ever dealt with! Good luck!

I am anxious about it too but just trying to look at it as just another step in the process. Good luck to you!

I'm December 21st too! I start pre-op diet Monday the 14th, go for pre-op appointments all day on the 16th. So nervous and so excited! Let's keep in touch!

Totally not weird! Good luck tomorrow!

Sounds like a great idea to me!

I'm in Alabama! Surgery December 21!

It could take several days. When I found out I was approved I had my insurance CSR email me a copy so I could forward it to the dr office immediately.

December 21 for me! Can't wait!
