I have not seen a doctor yet for a consultation, but have an appointment for August 18. I have spoken to my insurance company and they have said that I am covered for the procedure with pre authorization. I was wondering what kind of wait times others have had for their surgeries? In particular, with Carefirst, if anyone has that kind of insurance.

I'm in almost the same boat as you! Pre-approved by insurance and now waiting for my Aug 18th doctor appointment. Fingers are crossed that all goes smoothly! :-)

Well my paper work has been submitted to the insurance company, waiting on approval, I have one more coaching call to complete, and two more visits with psych. doctor, he already approved me but wants to see me two more times, but his assistant is so hard to reach and I guess so am I because our work ours are basically the same, we keep playing phone tag. I also have United Healthcare Plus, I hope I don't have to wait long. I am getting so discouraged, it's just getting harder and harder to function.
