Scheduled surgery while waiting for approval?

I called my surgeons office about the same thing. Unfortunately my office does not do that just in case the insurance doesn't approve. They can write it in my chart as my request, but they won't officially put it on the books until insurance approves. I can understand.

I am still in the process of gathering all the info I need to get approved. My last NUT visit is Dec 1 and surgery is scheduled for December 15. I'm praying for a fast positive decision. I guess it depends on the surgeon.

I have the same situation going on, my last PCP visit is Dec 2nd with surgery scheduled for Dec 22nd. My Health Care Advocate at Anthem BCBS said that was causes most delays is missing information. Fingers crossed!
