Lanette 124 Posted February 23, 2011 I am so excited that my pre-certification packet has been submitted! I have heard that others with my insurance have had great luck with approvals, so I feel very hopeful. We had to submit a scheduled date to the insurance company on the Pre-Cert. SOOOO, I am scheduled for March 28, 2011!! I am SO incredibly excited and ready to start this journey. I have been SO impressed with Dr. Travis Goodnight and his staff and cannot say enough good things about them. They have been SO patient with me and my 10 million questions. I have LOVED reading all of your stories and I cannot wait to share my own. I look forward to getting to know all of you better and going through this exciting life change together. P.S.....now to just figure out how to create a neat little BMI ticker thing!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lanette 124 Posted February 23, 2011 Might I ask which insurance company you have? I'm right behind you-----last dr. visit is Monday. Margaret- I have BCBC. I think it is technically BCBS of FL b/c the company I work for is based there. However all my cards, etc just say BCBS. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lanette 124 Posted February 24, 2011 Surgeon's office just called.......and I'm APPROVED! Took less than 24 hours!! They said that it almost ALWAYS takes the full two weeks to get the approvals! SO, they said that if we want we can try to do the surgery THIS MONDAY 2/28 instead of waiting until 3/28! So glad I started the pre-op diet in the off chance something like this happened!! This just shows that the power of prayer works! I prayed yesterday before they sent the submission and again last night that the nurse would review it quickly b/c she has been out on vacation. I'm SO EXCITED!! Now to just try to get caught up on work and housework in time to actually have surgery on Monday! Yikes! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
