Mine was submitted Monday n I'm going bonkers

I've heard you can call. I'm going to! I'll do it Tuesday.

I'm in the same boat ladies I called my insurance company and they haven't received anything from my doctor yet so hopefully Monday when the POC that is due to submit it will be back and hopefully time will whine down I talk to my insurance company and they said that once they receive it they have 3 to 5 business days. To process it so I'm just as excited myself I've carried this weight for the past 19 years and I am being as patient as I possibly can with GOD's help.


I bothered my insurance so much as soon as I knew it was sent [emoji23][emoji23] I think they just approved it so I would stop calling [emoji23][emoji23][emoji849] got my date of May 3rd tho [emoji51]

Booooooo! Excited, anxious and not looking forward to my 2 week diet! I still haven't heard from coordinator so maybe next week?!


Today or tomorrow! Fingers crossed hard! I'm so nervous, it's been a long two years waiting for this!

Excited for you Joann! Hang in there and give it a full 5 business days. It usually takes insurance companies up to 2 weeks but it depends. I gave mine 5 business days before I started the phone calls , lol. Turns out they had already approved it but my letter was taking its time in the mail. Anyway, I will pray for your turn girl. You are on the home stretch! Blessings and Aloha coming your way. Thanks for the encouragement the other day. Now 3 days post op and feeling better and better. Take care.

Glad you're feeling better! It's hard to imagine being where you are right now.

I will stay patient, or at least try very hard!

She didn't sound too sure. I'm afraid to get excited. On one hand they approved the stay but they'd have approved it before my packet was even submitted? It ended up being submitted today I'm confused!IMG_1420.thumb.JPG.1d0fdea6cbbec66d37f89f9c7ed4231c.JPGIMG_1419.thumb.JPG.5c56f2ede00d40ae193bc5c0266dd7bd.JPG

When I inquired online a lady emailed me back that's how I found out. Called bariatric coordinator today to c what was up n she said they never called her. She just called me and said insurance gave her my approval #. I go may 1 to sign consent for may 23 surgery!!
