I finished my supervised diet and paperwork was submitted on 3/6. They told me it would be 2-15 business days, which seems like forever! Hopefully I will get an answer soon .

I got mine today and mine was submitted on Monday also....surgery scheduled for 3/31.

Who's your insurance carrier? I was told it could take as long as 30 days to hear back from my insurance company (Anthem BCBS).

I have BCBS TX and it took one week. Everything was submitted on Valentines Day and I was approved on the 21st of Feb. My surgery is March 20th. Just be patient and pray.. (Be patient coming from the person that called the insurance company EVERYDAY) [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23][emoji53][emoji53][emoji17][emoji17][emoji17]

LOL! I know! My paperwork was submitted last Friday and I've called Monday and Wednesday. It has taken everything within me NOT to call today! Ha!

Congrats to you, ThickGirl5683! Your surgery date will be here before you know it!

Waiting on an answer is torture I'm trying to keep my mind off it but it's impossible all i think about is I hope & pray I'm not denied!!

Aetna. The insurance coordinator said average is 2 weeks. Im hoping in on the low end of that average [emoji16]

Mine was submitted on March 1st and I got my approval on the 6th, good luck and try not to worry about it. It'll come in time.

Mine was submitted 2/28 and I was approved on 3/2. I have Anthem BCBS. I was told with my specific employer plan, it would take 5 business days to get a decision.
