I had them, and I got my approval in about 6 days. Longest 6 days of my life, but thrilling to hear I was approved at the end. Good luck!! Who is your surgeon?

Alexander Abkin... I hope to get approved fast too.

I have BCBS of GA and was approved pretty quickly as well!

Good luck

I'm also with Dr Abkin & have BCBS!! I just have the gastro visit tomorrow & the endoscopy next week, then submit to insurance as well!

My surgery is scheduled for 6/16, how bout u?

June 2nd!!! So close already!!!

Lajodster we will be approved!!!! You will see!!! I know BCBS NJ is good approving for this surgery and we cannot be the exception... We will be approved too! I'm 5'3" and 247lbs. What are your stats?

Sleeve30 I sure hope so, I'm 5'8 and 349lbs! God that sucks saying "out load" to someone! I have the pre op class on 6/4! I was supposed to go on my sons class trip that day but now I can't...????

Don't worry that will change pretty soon... My preop is on 5/20 any clue what they do? Also do you know anything about the preop diet?

Good Luck!!

BCBS NJ and approved pretty quickly. I want to say maybe 3-4 days. Good luck!!

Awesome!!! Thanks I can't wait!

Sleeve30 I don't know anything about the pre op diet. I'm gonna ask if u can come earlier for the class so I can go on my sons trip with him! I'll let you know what happens!

I mean ask if I can come to class earlier! Duh

Yeah ask they might be able to work something out for you and that way you don't miss your sons trip.
