Awaiting approval!

Finally got my new insurance card and was able to submit my file to my new insurance company today! The wait may kill me, but I'm so excited to get the ball rolling on this journey!

I am waiting for approval to it is killing me, nervous and scared all at the same Time

Omg I have been approved

I'm waiting too! It was submitted to insurance 2 weeks ago today (bcbs of California). I am a crazy nervous wreck. Really trying to focus on reading up on my soapmaking hobby and making new soap recipes, but it's hard to keep my mind off this insurance wait. I call insurance about twice a week. "it's still in review."

Yay Diva! :D So exciting!

I talked to ins again just now. They said that the due date for my pre-auth is today at the end of the day, but that it looks like an approval nurse hasn't even been in the case to look at it yet. She said maybe the nurses are behind, and to keep waiting and calling. :(
