Hello everyone,

I'm new to the site and I'm patiently, well not so patiently, awaiting my insurance approval. I've been through the 6 months of medically supervised weight loss, had my psych evaluation, been to the nutritionist and all that jazz. My Dr has sent everything to the insurance and it's been about a week. Anyone know how long it takes for the review process?

It depends on your insurance company, I called and asked when my case was being looked at. On the day after they looked at it I called and they told me me I was approved. I then called my wls center and they as well called and got my approval #. I did'nt recieve my approval letter for two weeks after that.:bored:

So if you can call...call, like you I could'nt stand waiting. I think that is the hardest part is the wait. I have Lumenos bcbs, I hope this helped. Good luck keep us posted.

:smile2:Thanks meldlc37. I have Carefirst BCBS. I appreciate you taking the time to answer me.
