I just in turned all of my insurance requirements to medicaid (mo care) .. How long did it take Medicaid to approve or deny your surgery??? Or any insurance for that matter???

usually about a week. I have health plus through medicaid and they submitted my papers on a tuesday and I found out i was approved on the following monday. good luck! =]

Thats crazy fast. One week. Maybe I misread that.

they say it takes 2-3weeks.. but it usually is within a week. I rarely hear of someone waiting over a week. =]

Cholesterol and high sugar.. What do you guys think ??

TammieO..

You will have to call your insurance company to see if your particular plan covers it. The additional health issues do play a factor in approval but finding out if your policy covers wls is your next step. Good luck!

They do in face cover it. I called and asked.

I got approved in 2 days... And that was in aug...
