Congrats girl...glad u were able to get it...did u call Bcbs for ur approval?

Hi, I am a newbie her to the forum. I was on approve on October 7th to have surgery.. My date is November the 7th.. Whoooohoooo.. Well not really.. The submitted my paper work for the bypass.. I soooo don't wanna that procedure.. I will meet with the surgeon on Monday and they will resubmit my claim... Good news you might say.. Well again, not really my insurance is in negotiating with the hospital.. Basically if the cannot come to an agreement by December insurance will not cover the procedure after Dec 9th..SUCKS RIGHT!! I know.. The forum has been so helpful and motivational.. Do you think I should go ahead with the bypass since it has already been approve or take my chances and wait to see if I get the quick approval for the sleeve? I was gonna call my coordinator and commit to the bypass, but I changed my mind.. Please help.. Send some encouragement my way... By the way I have BCBS federal..????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????. Oh I forgot to add my surgeon is booked the entire month of Nov.. Some one cancelled that's how I got my date.. Help help..

I have BCBS n I was approved less than 24 hrs...so for the most part the requirements are the same or at least almost...if they resubmit you on Monday you should have an answer soon...how long did it take to get the 1st approval?

It took about 3-4 days, I just thought I was lucky..

Congratulations! I gotta say, LSP is one of my favorite people. When I read your post it made me smile because as I was reading, I was hearing your words in her voice. Oh my glob!

Oh...my...glob...I am going to be so freakin' hot! My luscious lumps will be in all the right places. I know you want this body, but you can't have it! lmao

LoL! Heeey Girl, pretty soon you won't need those lumps because you'll be all smooth. (Real smooth, not poser smooth). :-P
