Just got the call yesterday my revision to RNY has been approved! Im super excited, my coordinator called and gave me a surgery date of July 17th!

Yay. I hope I'm right behind you. The should submit my paperwork week after next.

good luck to you! shouldn't take too long to get the approval, mine came in about 3 weeks. keep me posted

What type of insurance do you have. I have BCBSNC.

united health care community plan now, when I had my sleeve originally I was under magnacare. Im using the same surgeon as my sleeve

Hi I'm also from NC Michelle Ery with BCBS state health plan. Where are you in your process?

My paperwork should be submitted to BCBS any day now. Waiting on my Bariatric coordinator.

What is a long process. Did you have to have all test in before surgery date or did they give you a tentative surgery date. Also did BCBS take a while for approval. My surgeon told me it takes about 3 weeks for approval, but I've heard other say it didn't take them as long. Where are you going to have your surgery performed?

I had an upper gi, nut eval, psych eval. The surgery center will not set a date until I'm approved. It can take up too three weeks but some get approval faster. I have not been approved yet. I will have surgery at Wesley long in Greensboro.

Hopefully if everything goes well, I will be having mine at Duke Regional, Durham.

Where are you at in the whole process? There is a North Carolina weight loss page if you want to join.

I have my endoscopy on July 10th and I have to have a sleep study completed, which is on June 27th. I also will attend my first class on June 27th. So I'm very early in the process. Don't have an appointment for psych eval yet. Sure I would love to join.

Add me on Facebook. Michelle Ery . I'll add you

Ok

If you don't mind me asking why are you having a revision done?

HI Michelle, I added you on messenger.
