If you called insurance

After your paperwork was submitted, how long did you wait. My doc is submitting today!

3 weeks, but that was because the Doc thought he did not have everything (he did) and he used an 'out of date' BCBS number (MY error). so 1/2 him and 1/2 me. Likely would have been 10 days to 2 weeks.

I called everyday. I called the day the MD said it was submitted to verify it was received. Then called everyday to check the status. It only takes a minute, and everyone I talked to was helpful and totally understood why I was calling back. I got an approval in 2 days. :)
