Hi All...

Anybody have TriCare Prime Remote? My surgeons office submitted everything for authorization for the LapBand! I checked the TriCare website and it's been pending for 2 days now. Am I being impatient? LOL Getting anxious now~:confused2:

Hi, have TRIWEST. TriWest

Your's went really fast compared to mine. I was banded Oct. 1st but I started trying to get approved in March. My doctor's office didn't know how to communicate with Tricare evidently! lol Congrats on the banding!

Hi - I have Triwest and am Tricare Prime Remote and I was approved in 2 days. So I really think it is all about the little things - how your doctors office filed the paperwork, who it was filed with, the office it got sent to, the planets in alignment!

I was surprised at how quickly it got approved - and I saw it on the website first. Then I got a call from a lady from Tricare who congratulated me and asked if I had any questions, etc. So I have had a really good experience with Tricare. Good Luck and keep us updated!!
