Wondering what experiences have been working with BCBS of Illinois.

Fast and easy.

It is going to vary by your plan though. There are tons of different plans and what the cover is different.

I've been in touch with BCBS and it seems things should go pretty well. My deductible for the year is already met and I have 3 of the conditions they use to assess approval. I found some people have had their Meal Replacements covered depending on code. So much to learn....

Thank you.

I have bcbs of Illinois. They received paperwork on 2/20 and approved on 2/24, however they said it took up to 2 weeks for the letter to "generate" and have something to fax my doctor. Today, 3/10, still nothing. Very frustrated.

I have BCBS of IL and it was fairly straight forward. Had to have letter for clearance from my PCP, attend a meeting with nutritionist, psych eval. There was an additional class required by my surgeon not required by the insurance. It took me about a month to complete all of those requirements.

It was about 2 weeks from submission to paperwork to approval.
