I am just feeling really nervous now. I just finished up all of my requirements for surgery and got my surgery clearance. Now I have to wait for my surgeon's office to submit to the insurance company and wait for a response. Why bother giving me a surgery date when they may deny? It's so stressful. Ugh. Fingers crossed.

Meryl0707 I don't get that...my surgeon office won't give you a date until you get the insurance approval. The only thing I can think of is if they book up quick you'll have your date. I know it's so frustrating

I got the approval. I called my insurance on another matter and inquired to see if they received the paperwork and they told me they did and I was approved. 24 hours. Pretty relieved.

Awesome congrats !

Ty!

My surgeon's office books a date while approval is pending because the OR can fill up quickly. It's best to have a date and have to reschedule or cancel than it is to wait and not be able to get a date.

Congrats on getting your date!
