Surgery approval, How long did it take for you to get your insurance approval?

I'm just curious to know, how long it took for everyone to get approve after you submitted to your insurance and what insurance do you have?

Submitted August 6th , approved today!! Whoop Whoop!! Doing the happy but nervous dance.

congratulations, did you get a date yet, and I'm doing the dance right with you, we could possibly getting sleeved around the same time
That's great. So happy for you too. Yesterday on the phone the coordinator said September 14th was open but she was going to look in the calendar to see if there is earlier. She said they won't do it before the holiday week.
