So I called my doctor's Office today to see if my insurance approval had come in and was told that they changed my surgery date from July 6th to June 29th. They also said that they were going to hear back from my insurance today and they would call me back to schedule me for an appointment tomorrow to sign all my preop paperwork. Fast forward to end of the day, I didn't hear anything back , and the office was closed. I then tried calling my insurance to check on the approval, but they were also closed. I finally found information through my insurance's online chat feature. The lady there told me that the doctor's office had only sent in request today and that it takes several weeks for the approval to happen. If this is true than my surgery is going to end up July 13th because the doctor is out the original date. Hopefully I find out more tomorrow though I have a feeling I'm going to be rushing into town for a last minute doctor's appointment. If my surgery is going to be June 29th, I need to know tomorrow due to needing to start the preop liquid diet on Monday. I just really don't need this extra unnecessary stress.

Hang in there. Have you heard anything?

I was approved and everything is on the new schedule for June 29th. I'm a planner and ambiguity is stressful.
