I have Anthem BCBS. When did you get your surgery date? Was if after your 6 month program was finished and insurance approved you? Or were you able to schedule it before the approval (contingent on approval of course).

I also have Anthem and would love to know this

Edit: I just talked to my surgeon coordinator and since my last 3 dietician visits are already scheduled, last one in May 6th, she said they'd submit the stuff ASAP and "generally" expect an approval in about 10 days max. From there, they can schedule the surgery for 2 weeks from the approval date. So I think this contingent on your surgeon's office availability, not necessarily Anthem.
