after u get approved by your insurance how long is the wait for surgery? Also how long after u finish everything u have to do does your insurance take to give u an answer?

It depends on how soon your surgeon can get you in and if you've finished all the pretesting. My insurance had up to 45 days to respond but I called them after a week and I was approved. So it just depends you just have to follow up with them.

I would imagine once approved, you get scheduled for an operating room and in line for your surgeons surgeries. I think couple of weeks max-

Honestly, it would all be dependent on your your surgeons schedule. Some times are busier for them than others, they may have business trips/conferences already on the schedule and just family vacations planned. The sooner you get on their secedule and have your surgery date secured, the better. On average, I would say 3 to 4 weeks. When I had my plastic surgery, I had to book 3 months in advance, so it varies from Doctor to doctor.

I was approved over the weekend. I turned in my papers on last friday and got approved this morning. The surgery date depends on the surgeons schedule. When I talked to the doctors office today, she said she could have me in surgery by this Friday. I was totally shocked.
