I feel like I won the Lottery! Blessedness on your approval.

Whoohooo! Congrats!

I just found out I'm approved. Oh my. Oh my ohy

I finished all my pre op stuff last Thurs. My surgeon's office should be sending in anytime. Now I need to learn patience.

I already called insurance to see if it was submitted. Lol. Nope not yet

My Paperwork was submitted to Aetna today.

Did anyone do anything special to get the approval so fast? I mean come on, they have had it for 2 hours.

The reviewers have 2 weeks to complete the process. Depending on the work load, it could take that long although most are done much quicker. There are a lot of services other than bariatric surgery that require review & anything life-threatening or urgently needed will take precedence over elective procedures. I know, I worked as a nurse reviewer for over 7 years.

My coordinator was on the phone for over an hour with the insurance company getting approval. I have a Cadillac policy being I am a state employee. No special privileges here just had the BMI requirement and the co morbidities that went along with it.

Mine was sent to Aetna last Wednesday. I called Thursday to make sure they received everything. Checked again today and still pending...the waiting is driving me crazy

That is fantastic. That is awesome that it was approved so fast too. Amazing!

congrats

patiently waiting

I submit everything tomorrow!!!

They just sent my paperwork off to the insurance and here I wait . I am scared and nervous . What if they deny me?? This anxiety is awful.

Congrats. I have my sleep study tonight and the psychologist eval tomorrow. I should be ready to submit by next Friday. I can't wait!

Over the past few months I have built a relationship with the case worker from my insurance company. Yesterday I called and left a message that my paper work had been submitted.

This morning she called me and told me she had not got it yet, it can take a couple days to process, but that she would turn it around as soon as she gets it. She said I should hear something by Friday or Monday at the latest.

I know I am being selfish, but I am hoping for today
