Any locals?
nomorequitting replied to nomorequitting's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Yes, still on medi-cal got my surgery 04/06 with my new surgeon process was faster as I had all my requirements for surgery which were psych eval. nutrition eval., sleep study, EGD, and documented weightloss tried. My prev. surgeon had a long waiting list for everything since he is the main bariatric surgeon for ventura county, but when I found my surgeon she was amazing and was in network with medi-cal. I would look around for options with surgeons as you don't just have that one choice! Good luck on your journey! -

Insurance pending
nomorequitting replied to nomorequitting's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Thanks for the feedback!! My surgeons office actually called me today to let me know that they would b submitting for auth today and to make sure not to gain any weight before pre op if not they would cancel my surgery! So hoping the insurance is fast with it and approves me as I am borderline at 40 bmi and only one co morbidity -
How long did it take you to get approved?
nomorequitting replied to baileyj908's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I just had my last requirement with my surgeon today and they told me insurance would b around 3 weeks to respond which I know is a lie I don't think u shouldn't have an answer for that long.. I would call them -
Yay! I finally had my last required appt with my nutritionist ✔️ had my psych eval✔️ even met my goal weight for my surgeon to go forward with doing the surgery now to wait for the ladies to submit my request to my insurance (medi-cal) question is I am a very impatient person should I call and see when they will submit and keep bugging them? I work for health clinic so I know the insurance approval takes no longer than 5 days for approval it just depends on the speediness of the person so should I bug or should I be patient? lol FYI they told me it would take 3 weeks I don't think I can wait that long

Really hoping to hear local stories, I'm from Ventura, CA and I'm on medi-cal there is a long waiting list for nutrition eval and psych so I'm feeling very anxious. My surgeon required 10lb weightloss for my next appt Nov 12 but my psych and Nutrition eval isn't until 11/19 was initially referred back in July and wasn't seen until September, I'm hoping medi-cal will approve my surgery and get on the books for surgery for Dec Jan. What was your pre op journey like??

All new to this WLS from California!
nomorequitting replied to nomorequitting's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I am also in California on medi-cal. I live in the Bay Area. How about you?I was referred by my PCP to Stanford Bariatric Clinic. They had me fill out a questionnaire and I had to wait for a surgeon to review my information before they would allow me to do anything else. I just got word they cleared me to get the process started. The clinic said they would be calling me tomorrow to go over information and schedule my seminar. Good luck to you! How's it going? I just attended my seminar just waiting for my psych eval and nutrition eval... Feeling anxious!! -
