  4. Congrats to all the approvals!!!!????????????????????. I'm still waiting for my approval .????. The insurance told me that all I'm missing is a letter from my pcp. It's called a medical necessity letter , basically with my bmi , conditions and family history . I'm so afraid that deny me . Has anyone's insurance requested this letter ?
  5. Hey , I'm jabbing the same problem . My coordinator was suppose to submit my paperwork on jan 14 . I have contact my insurance almost everyday and they have not received anything . Before she use too answer her phone or call me back . Now she does not answer at all . I'm about to schedule an appointment and ask what's going on . I'm really fed up , if its too much work for her to send paperwork , then I should just take my paperwork someplace else. I really want to have surgery with my surgeon but if my process will continue to be delayed bc of her . then I will have to go so place else .

    Submitted to insurance yesterday

    I feel your pain . I'm going through the same situation . My paperwork was suppose to be submitted on jan 14. I called the surgical coordinator and she claims she submitted last week. However , when I called the insurance today , they told they have not received anything from my surgeon. I'm super anxious bc I really want to be sleeved in feb . If I don't get a decision my next week , I'm getting all my paperwork n transferring to another hospital .
  9. Congrats , that's excellent news . Hopefully everything goes well and you can get your surgery next week . I will continue to stalk my insurance
  10. Hey beautyandbeyond, I called my insurance today and they said they didn't see any paperwork on my file regarding the surgery . I didn't call the surgical coordinator because I was going to curse out. It already been two weeks n she has not submitted the paperwork . Tomorrow I will give her a call . How about you ?
  11. I completely understand you . I been in this process for almost a year . Finally, I'm done with everything and the coordinator has not sent my paperwork . She claims she send on Friday but when I called my insurance today , they said that they have now received anything. !! I'm super anxious to know of I got approved . I also want to put in my paperwork at work . It's so frustrating !!!!!
