I went to a seminar on 6-5. I turned in all my paper work and insurance info. that day. The insurance said they will pay. I have not heard back from anyone. I have called twice and get a recording to leave a message.

I did not recieve any calls back.

Maybe I'm just getting impatient. Did everyone else take this long to hear back from anyone? Thanks, Judy

My insurance wouldn't pay for WLS so I was self-pay. Once I decieded upon Dr. Aceves, I had all the paperwork in hand, completed and date scheduled within one week. Seems to me your doctor's office has some communication issues.

When it comes to WLS and insurance you have to make a fuss and throw fits until you get answers.

It is going to take some time for ins to approve it, rarely do they do anything fast!

Did they give you a time frame? Most ins usually takes about a month but a couple of people have posted that they were approved in a a couple of days. But really, that's unusual.

You can call the MD office as well as the ins co.

Thank you for responding to my question. I wanted to have this surgery while I was off from school this summer. (Kindergarten Assistant). I need time to recover before taking on 28 five year olds all day. LOL

It was the MD's office that I left messages with and haven't heard anything from.

I don't know if there is enough recovery time in the world to prepare you for taking on 28 five year olds:biggrin2:
