I finally got everything turned in and packet submitted to my insurance company. Today's my upper gi. I'm excited and looking forward to the call to schedule surgery in April. Much love to you all!!!

My tentative date is April 24th!! Finished all the requirements..waiting on insurance final approval!!! Happy to see all the support!

Same situation here. I can't wait to get he call saying insurance approved everything and schedule surgery for April. Good luck!!

That is super fast! What insurance do you have? My insurance requires a 6 month process. I started everything back in Nov.

I started the process in feb and surgery is next month. Waiting on final approval from insurance company.

It's all happening so fast now. I hope recovery happens even faster.

I just found out I was approved and my surgery is scheduled for April 17th. I was really shocked that my approval only took about 24 hours [emoji15].
Now it is getting real!

What insurance do you have? I have BC/BS of IL and my approval came within five hours. She submitted in the morning and by two she had an approval. Hopefully you'll hear something soon, if not today!! Fingers crossed for you

Thanks. I have Tricare Prime. I can't wait to hear back. It's normally 24 hours for them. I think they're waiting for my upper gi that I'm getting done right now. I'm waiting to be called in. Then I'll probably hear back next week. I'm excited and nervous at the same time. My younger brother is getting married in June so I'm looking forward to lose a good amount of weight before I head out to cali.

Don't forget, after all your testing is done and you're officially waiting for approval, you can call the insurance company to check on your status. Sometimes they will approve you, but take a day or two before sending something out.

I'm too excited about getting a good amount of weight off by fall. It will be nice to go through a corn maze and not want to collapse twenty minutes in.

That's good to know thanks. Maybe I'll call them on Monday.

I know the feeling. I can't wait to just be able to go back out to play with the kids. I was in the Army and I just want to go back to my old self and show them momma used to be a soldier and she's now back to her old self.
Running through a corn maze sounds like fun!

My tentative date is April 26th. They are just waiting to get the approval to confirm and schedule my last meeting with my surgeon to go over questions and with my nurse to go over what my pre open diet will consist of.
