I have tricare insurance and went to my last appoinment today!!! The doctors office says they will be submitting no later than monday for approval. How long does this process usually take for tricare patients??? Super excited and ready to start my journey.....

I'm wondering the same thing. I was submitted exactly 2 weeks ago & I have not heard anything yet. I have Cigna.

Im pretty sure it took them about a week to get back to me, but I have United Health Care...Good Luck!

Mine was sent to BCBS-IL on Thursday and I got denied yesterday. It was over wanting another letter from the doctor. I was told almost everyone gets denied first time. But it was only a 6 day period for them to get my denial. So now I'm waiting to see how long it takes to get the approval.

I have bcbs of il, I was approved in 1 day, but I kept calling them and checking on the status, idk of that helped or not, but the lady did say that I must be really lucky because most get denied the first time just had all of our paperwork lined up they even called me to let me knOw it was approved! So sugery is the 29th!

WOW Christy you are lucky. They denied me because my doctors letter had all the information on it but they wanted it written different or even seperated. Are you kidding me? I think it has a lot to do with the fact that if they deny people maybe some won't reapply and those people don't really want it anyways. Only the people who truly want it fight for it.
