I have NYC Transit BCBS anyone have a problem with approval? I'm waiting supposed to have surgery June 21 .

Hi...I have BCBS of IL. Prior to surgery I had someone on this site give me some advice and it was very helpful. After you have been submitted, call BCBS and ask for them to check on the status and explain that you are checking with them to make sure that everything that they need has been submitted. Check back every few days with them. ALWAYS be very polite with lots of pleases and thank you very much....gush kindness. This did work for me and help things get thru a little faster....even though I was denied at first they called me to tell me why and explain what I needed to have to resubmit. Good luck!

Hi I have bcbs of il also. I have all my info turned in to the insurance coordinator and I too was wondering once she submits it, how long before they approve or deny? I am so ready to do this.

Thanks for the good advice
