The Waiting Game

[Lananala 1]

Hello out there in VSG land. I am trying to be patient playing this waiting game. I had my seminar with Dr. Feiz from Valencia, CA on 2/9 and have been waiting for my insurance approval. I know it takes time to get everything together to send to insurance but OMG... this is killing me. I want this surgery so bad. I read all the forums and try to soak up all this information like a sponge I heard from the coordinator that she sent my packet into Aetna last week and it usually takes 5-7 business days from submission so now I am watching the calendar and trying not to to call the office for updates every day. Thanks for letting me vent. I hope to be logging on very soon with a surgery date.

Has anyone had Dr. Feiz do their surgery? Just curious.

Thanks,

Lisa

Lisa,

I broke down and emailed my coordinator again. I just had to know if they actually submitted my packet to insurance. I feel bad bugging them but waiting is so hard. I don't even feel like this is real yet. Once the approval comes in (fingers crossed) then I know that feeling will change. Anyway, there are lots of us out here in VSG land with you!! I will keep your quick approval in my prayers tonight.

Good Luck,

Heather

Call Aetna them selves to ask. My information was submitted to Aetna at 430 on a Monday and I had my answer from them on Thursday AM. After I got off the phone with Aetna I called my Dr to schedule the appt and they didn't even know I was approved yet!!!
