hello... im waiting for approval too I have Cigna and my surgeon's office submitted all my paperwork last Tuesday 8/15/17 .. I have called them everyday since then lol... actually about to called them in a few minutes .. I got that standard letter that they send out after they get the pre-cert request..... right about now I need some good news this has been an emotional past 2 weeks for me.... -
I DONE CALLED CIGNA EVERYDAY SINCE MY PAPERWORK WAS SUBMITTED TO THEM ON 8/15/17... I'M STARTED TO FEEL LIKE THEY HAVE CALLER ID LOL..... HOW LONG DOES IT USUALLY TAKE FOR APPROVAL ?
-
when is your surgery date? yeah I done a lot of research on the surgery my mom was suppose to get it 2 years ago but she had sleep apnea really bad and never went through with it.. I have about 7 friends who has had the sleeve done
-
hope so... I have my date (oct 19th).. I've already gave both my jobs notice and im just ready for a lifestyle change
-
well I called again and they said they have received all my clinical information and it's still being reviewed and that it takes 5-7 days from date it was submitted and being that it was submitted last Tuesday, day 5 is tomorrow and they will be receiving another phone called from me tomorrow.....
-
yes im so anxious .. I did 6 months because my secondary insurance required it just to find out last month the secondary insurance dropped me because my son turned 18 in may and my "income" was too much ... Cigna has waaayyyyy more documentation than they required due to the fact I had to do 6 months instead of 4 months... I hate insurance companies they waste no time deducting the money from my paycheck every 2 weeks but make you wait for approval....
-
surgeon's office called me today its still pending ... but im gonna called cigna again myself.....
-

-
just contacted Cigna they received my paperwork on 8/15/17 its under review lady told me the turn around time was 5-7 days ... SUPA ANXIOUS
