Good news, insurance called and told me I had 1 year from approval. So I am clear. Whew! -

You are close! My heart ablation is July 11th and appt to be cleared Aug 8th. So if all goes well surgery should be about 2 weeks from that. Insurance called today and said my approval is good for 1 year. So that is a relief too. That's next May! -

Hey there! I was just approved but now have to wait for a heart procedure before I can set a date. So hopefully soon. Really want to get it done before my kids go back to school in Aug. How about you? -

I know this thread is a couple months old but I figured you may know. Once insurance approves how long is it good before you need approval again? I was just approved but now my cardiologist wants to do a procedure and said I need to wait until after to discuss time frame for wls. -

Does it always take 6 months to get a date?
CrazyHeart14 replied to Tina4heath4ever's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Tina, I'm having my surgery on June 24th @ mayo in jacksonville. Because I had a lot of things wrong with me, like sleep apnea, etc.. It's taken me over a year. They want to make sure that you know everything & are ready for your new re-birth. Sent from my SM-T520 using the BariatricPal App @@marylu I am going to Mayo too. Approval today! Do you remember how long from approval you got a date? -

I had mine done with no anesthesia. They recently started doing this. I had the numbing spray but that was it. I gagged but knew I would so was prepared. They talked me threw it. Easy and I got up and went home. -

@@Ruth1ess thanks! How are you doing? Also how long did they have you do the preop liquid diet? Does it depend on Dr or person? I have seen it all over the place. -
Has anyone had experience with United health care?
CrazyHeart14 replied to vandernoordh's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
@vandernoordh I also have the 6 months within the past 2 years. Did you use Dr visits? Most all my visits talk about diet and weight loss. The nurse said I would be able to use those? Just curious how yours worked? -

Brand new to the site but am preop and will have surgery at Mayo. Dr Bowers as well. Last classes next Month. Do we have a one on one with the nutritionist before surgery? I am local too.
