  1. I hope you get your referral soon! I went directly through my surgeon’s office.
  2. I got my approval!! I go on February 13 for an all day kind of thing. Meet with the surgeon one last time before surgery and get a date for surgery. Next week I have to go do ekg, chest X-ray and final lab work. Surgery will probably be the end of February/beginning of March
  3. I just got approved yesterday. I called my insurance company every day this week. Call them. And best of luck!

  5. Isn’t that the truth! I may have called twice today ?
  6. Call them and harass them. I have called every day since Tuesday.
  7. I got approved!!! Calling the surgeon tomorrow!
  8. Awesome news! I called mine again today and I’m still pending. I told her I would call back tomorrow ?
  9. My file was submitted to insurance 4 business days ago, after reading a lot of forums and support groups, I called the insurance line today. They said they are waiting for medical records from the doctor. ??‍♀️ Guess who has a voicemail waiting for them tomorrow morning, my referral/insurance coordinator. We are about to be best friends.
  10. My paperwork was submitted Thursday. Impatiently waiting in Kentucky.
  11. Officially had my chart sent to insurance on Thursday afternoon. Here’s to hoping they approve it. If not, I’m paying out of pocket.
  12. J_Mkay, I’m hoping to have the sleeve. I say hoping because I’m still waiting on insurance approval.
  13. I’m in Kentucky, Lexington actually. I just had my last appointment to have everything submitted for insurance approval. I’m waiting on pins and needles
