hello all...

Im 13 days away from when my surgery is scheduled for, tomorrow i go for my pre op tests at the hospital. today i called the surgeons office to see where i was in the insurance process and found out that insurance company wanted a psy evaluation which my dr sent but had to be resent today and they also wanted a letter of things ive done this past year for weight loss. Now im losing my mind could they mess up my plans of having surgery the 13th???

Surgeons office doesnt seem worried about it but im freaking out. Ive logged on to Horizon BC/BS to watch my authorization but all it says in pending more information..

Omg could this all not happen and im so close. anyone have anything similar to give me some ensight

Keep the faith. If it does get pushed back, its ok. Tryand stay positive. Its going to work out just keep after your surgeons office. And keep track of all conversations. Who you talked to, date,time, etc....good luck

My psych eval took one week....and thats only because I had to go back on two Wednesdays (my only day off) to complete it! I hope you can get one as quickly! I am also scheduled for the 13th - Lets keep in touch!!

I have bcbs of nc. My doctor office says that they love bcbs because they are very pro bariatric surgery. You should be good especially if the doctor office is not worried. Good luck

well i have 10 more days and still havent heard anything. called dr office thursday afternoon and woman who deals with the insurance told me to stop worrying..( easier said then done) but i took it as a hint not to call her for a few days, needless to say now im really stressing..

Give her a hint and call her everyday! This is your health!! Ask them who they use to get the psych clearance and call them yourself. Don't let some miserable person in an office postpone your surgery!
