Leesa926 replied to neequa25's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
It's officially 12/16!!!! -
Mine was easy but depends on which state. I have Anthem BCBS OH
-
Jacksonville, Fl
-
I got my approval today I am sure yours is coming any day now! If it helps my docs office resubmitted to BCBS OH this morning and approval came in a few hours so it will happen! (She said it would take a few days)
-

-

I was approved today initially they submitted for 12/9 so will be calling me with a surgery date tomorrow. I'm assuming 12/16 due to the to two-week pre op diet. So excited and my nerves are high at the same time -
Thanks!!
-
Approved!!!! Waiting on date!!!!
-
Insurance coordinator said she sent it to a different number spoke to them this morning she reassured me that do not require the 6 month so fingers crossed I'll probably call later to make sure they got it
-
Even when I called wed they said there was no specifics so hoping that's just a guide. The woman over the phone said yes some states/plans require yours does not. Seems they didn't get anything on my file sent over. Tomorrow I will know more...hopefully!
-
Before that part it says in order to process the following is needed.
-
Here is what the letter says. It's almost like they send a blank file.. They have said on the phone numerous times it does not state needs 6 months as well as the paperwork so hopefully this is just a "suggestion" of what to send. So annoyed surgery was requested for 12/9 so hopefully I can still get this year. Any insurance gurus to put my mind at ease. Thanks
-
When might doctors office said I didn't need 6 months so I've done three months with him I just don't have medically supervised I think its just saying that he has to approve that you've tried to lose weight I don't know. My practice is pretty big I can't imagine they wouldn't have the right information

BCBS Fed and 2 year weight history requirement
Leesa926 replied to MeFirst's topic in Insurance & Financing
I'm using dr. Uchal as well schedule surgery was December 9th but having issues with approval so I'm hoping the 16th! -
Thanks just hoping my doctor's office had it right they said all along I was within the requirements.
-
Think I found a silver lining it says six continuous months not consecutive is that right? Fully appraised doesn't necessarily mean under doctors care. Hope I'm not just pulling at straws
-
You too!
-
I'm guessing you didn't hear anything yet either huh
-
I'm in the same boat with Blue Cross Blue Shield of Ohio. Doctors office didn't send the facility information so I have to wait till Monday and my insurance also changes next year
-
Went to last appointment Tuesday. As of today insurance says they don't see in system but the visit is showing on the web page. They told me to call back Wed and I don't want to pressure but they are closed Thursday and Friday. They should at least have it by now, no? Also to add, my insurance will cost a lot more come Jan 1 so pushing for December
-
So annoyed. Insurance told me today the authorization was auto cancelled as the fax didn't contain facility information. Doctors office is closed till Monday so another week of waiting.....
-
Still nothing today, wait is driving me mad! They are off Thurs and Friday as well as insurance changing in Jan. Think I will call tomorrow before 5 lol - I feel like a pest

That gives me hope insurance if they received my authorization yesterday so just waiting to hear back so anxious!! Doesn't help they told me can take 5 days and they're closed Thursday and Friday -
I just called and they said they received it on the 23rd I was so embarrassed when he asked how many times I called on it. He said it can take up to 5 business days so he will call me personally on a before the first and he'll keep his eye on it. I know they're off Thursday and Friday so of course I'm on pins and needles
