Last day before submitting to insurance

I go to my last class and support group today. I cannot believe after today I will be submitting to insurance. It's been an uphill battle but I am so excited. After they touch base w insurance, which does not have preapproval then I start doing my testing and get a surgery date.

I hope to hear from the insurance lady soon. I wonder though how long it will take.

My surgeon told me once we submit it will probably take 1-6 weeks...but ive heard of people hearing back in less then a week

I asked my nutritionist today and she said hopefully within two weeks. Keeping many fingers crossed that we all get good news soon!

Yes let's hope everyone hears something soon

I had to wait 10 days with the same insurance that approved others in hours :) have some patience and do something to stop thinking about it too much :) good luck, you'll be on the losers bench before you know it :)

I found out last Tuesday that I was approved and then got the call yesterday that scheduled my testing for next Thursday. Hoping the first week of October to get my date and my last preop class.
