Awaiting insurance approval

I am dying over here! Been away approval for a week and two days. I checked my referral online and one thing is approved and the other part in process. I feel like the longer I wait the more nervous I get! Ahh!!!

I know exactly how you feel, although mine was not quite that long......my surgeons office submitted two procedures for approval....the hiatal hernia repair, and the sleeve......The hernia repair auto approves they don't even review anything regarding that....and then it was 6 days before they finally reviewed and approved the sleeve......the wait is very nerve wracking!!! Good luck!!!

I can't even tell what is what lol. I am just having the sleeve so I'm not sure what is approved and what is in process. I am giving it till Monday then I am going to call and find out. Maybe I will get lucky and it will change today!

@@Heidi.E If I were you I would be calling them to find out when I can expect to have an answer......Mine only took 6 days and I think during that time I called customer service 3 different times...lol

I'm playing the waiting game now as well today makes day 5. And they don't show it online so I can only find out by calling, waiting on a letter in the mail or when the scheduler calls me . Needless to ay I am super polite but I call them every day.

Waiting here too! luckily mine only consists of a phone call to get approval but the nurse who does it said she would submit yesterday or Monday and call me as soon as she got off the phone. Well I didn't hear from her yesterday so looks like it's Monday. Lol good luck! :)

Nope. Found out mine is on hold due to my heart condition and they have to get my cardiologists ok. My cardiologist just left the practice on 4/29 lol.... So not sure what's going on now.

I call every single day today I finally got a number so I guess it's officially being reviewed because they have assigned it like the ticket number
