I finally have lost the weight the dietitian has ordered for me to do and now my papers are submitted to my insurance! ?

How long did it take for your insurance to approve you?? What if they don't approve you, what did you do?? ?

Once I had jumped through all the hoops and my surgeon's office had reviewed all of my medical records, it only took about 2 weeks to get approval once they submitted it to insurance.

I was submitted on a Monday and approved on Wednesday. My surgery date is 5-22-19. Good luck!!!

3 weeks for insurance approval but only because the surgeon's office had to submit twice. However it's been 3 weeks since I was approved and I still don't have a date.
