horsegirl315 114 Posted November 14, 2011 New to the forum, but just figured I would post my wait time for BCBS of Rhode Island. It took about a month to hear back from them once my paperwork was submitted, but this past Friday, I got a call from the sleep study center my surgeons office uses. Apparently the surgeons office sent over the referral for my sleep study. After a call to the surgeon, they did confirm that I had been approved and would be getting my official letter with remaining requirements....YAY! I wonder how many more hoops I have to jump through!

horsegirl315 114 Posted November 14, 2011 Ooh! Thanks! Wonder how many individual appts that will be. I wish I could just get it all done in one day! Good think is I recently had a physical and my doctor was excited about the surgery, so that won't be a problem! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Good think is I recently had a physical and my doctor was excited about the surgery, so that won't be a problem! Hi, Congratulations on being approved. It isn't possible to do them all in one day. I had to do all of the above listed by Corrigan and it took about six weeks from start to finish. If you work, and have a time crunch, I have heard of people being able to work a couple of appts in in one day. All the best to you. I can tell you are excited!
