A-Marie. It took about six weeks for me because I had to have the sleep apnea test, nutritionist consult, and psych appointment first. Good luck!

Well I Have Already Finished All Of My Test And Evaluations, This Week, So Now I Am Just Wondering How Long I Will Have To Wait From The Time That The Dr.s Office Sends My Info In To My Insurance Company

I have 2 insurance carriers. The primary approved me in 6 days and the secondary denied me in 8 days (they sent the denial overnight mail).

Generally the insurance company notifies the surgeon's office so if I were you I would call there after one week. Things get hectic there and they don't get back to you promptly. Good luck!!!

The Only Part That I'm Worried About Is Not Having A Co-morbidity With Just Being Overweight Which I Think My Insurance Requires

Less than a month for both the wife and I.I got approved first and then she was approved a week later not sure what happen with it since they went in at the same time. We had figured it would take longer to get approved.
