More info

Hello I have UHC just got a call from my surgeons office asking for me to send them more info about weight history. Do you think this is a good thing or a bad thing. 10 mins later I got a call from a UHC surgical nurse, asking me if I wanted to take advantage of a program covered by my insurance for pre op patients. Have anyof you had this happen. And do you think I'm on my way to be approved??

My surgeons office sent over my paperwork to UHC on March 5 and yesterday I got a call from the office saying the ins company is looking for more weight documentation. I called the ins Company before I pay and obtain a yr from kidney doctors office because I had to loose weight before I had left kidney removed and we had weigh ins for months in 2011. The ins co says it doesn't say they are in need of any additional info. Maybe the office wants to be prepared in case? My surgeons office says they think we should be approved shortly.

So how many days was it total for you from the time it was sent until approval? Just curious because I think mime was sent on 3/11 and I talked to UHC today and they said that they had it.

We submitted to UHC on March 5. Submitted more supervised diets/ weigh ins yesterday at 1 pm and got the approval by 4 pm.. good luck! I'm sure you'll hear good news soon :) total of 9 days.

Got my approval today. FINALLY. Now onto the next step.
