I am nervous it has been almost a month since I have finished everything I need to get approved. But I have not heard from the clinic I have been calling almost every day. I keep getting the say line it is in review by the director. I am not sure if I messed up somewhere. I'm scared that they will tell me no

Think positive. If it is meant to be it will happen. I had a surgery date the first day I met with the surgeon and after all the appointments and tests it wasnt until 2 days before surgery that my ins co approved me. If you have done everything required of you then don't worry.

Unless you hear the word "denied" you have every right to hope for a positive outcome. Hang in there. My fingers are crossed! ????

Can you just call your insurance company and check the status?

I called my insurance and they have not sent it back in for the insurance company to review it so I'm not sure what they are doing

Try to get ahold of someone in the office. They may not have sent it in. I know my friend's kept getting bumped to the bottom for some reason and it finally took her going to the place and watching them fax it to her insurance to get them to do it. Some places also take longer if there's a lot of people going for it

Go in to the clinic. Ask how many patients ahead of you and when they will send your papers in. Your approval from ins is only good temporarily so they may be waiting to send in your papers based on the number of clients ahead of you.

What they keep telling me is the department head is looking at them then it goes to the dr then it will go to insurance

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
