You must be one of the lucky ones that doesn't have to meet the insurance companies requirements! Even with several co morbidities, and a back that needs surgery, I HAD to wait my 6 months! Wish they would come up with a better system!

I would think so too but we are such a small company that we don't even have FMLA. I think they can get by with this stuff because they're so small.

You should look for a new job while you're off new beginnings after all.. lol

I guess between my endocrine and sleep ap doc's labs and notes from the past three years, plus all the surgeries must of did a favor for me. I just had another mri on my back and may be facing another back surgery. I thought for sure anthem would say i needed a six month diet.

I have anthem as well! I guess they may have approved me early, but my surgeon is against submitting early. They want to have everything the insurance requires in order, so the chances of quick approval are better. Make sense I guess, even tho the waiting sucks!

Like i said I'm just amazed it was so fast. Because they were jerks when i needed my last back surgery. Plus my husbands employer took wls off the policy last year and added it back on this year.

I'm having surgery for health reasons mostly and then second too get my life back and be active and not so self conscious. My third reason is to find a new job. Be kind to your insurance people because they don't like it either... I work in insurance, but not regular healthcare and it sucks. Insurance is one of the most stressful jobs there is...

My date is April 8th! I'm very excited

[nnaddour 73]

Well I started in November and my doc gave me a surgery date of April 29. I still need pulmonary clearance (3/20) and have to see the heart care group (3/28) and psych eval (4/5). They will submit to the insurance on 4/10 after my last weigh in and appt with doc. Starting to get nervous, mostly about the first few weeks post-op.

Good luck everyone!
