How long does it take for the doctor office to submitted your case to the insurance company.? I have complete everything since 7/11 and I called my ins and they said they have received anything.. I send e-mail to the coordinator that was helping me with all the insurance stuff at the doctors office a few days ago but have not heard back

i had over 6 months worth of hoops to jump through before they submitted all my paperwork. I was told insurance companies can take forever. With that said. They gave me a surgery date then submitted my paper work. If they give you a date prior to submiting everything it forces the insurance company to make a decision within 30 days by law. otherwise they can just take forever. I got my approval within 2 weeks. I hope this helps.

The doc office just confirmed that everything has been submitted to my insurance company for approval. I guess I just have to wait now..

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
