Got approved

Hi all,

I am new here but looking forward to learning what I can.

I am happy to say that Bluecross Blueshield approved my surgery! I need to receive the letter, see the surgeon, and schedule a date. I am hoping to have the surgery done by the end of July.

So it begins.

    The request was submitted on July 1, last Wednesday. I called them yesterday, July 7 on another matter and also learned that I had been approved. So just less than a week. I was told to expect a verbal approval in a week and the official approval letter in another week.
