AJPeezy 0 Posted September 7, 2012 ok so i work at a trauma hospital and we have bcbs. the good thing about it is, being an employee at this hospital if we are admitted, or having surgery etc. everything is covered. luckily we do have a bariatric doctor and the insurance will be covering the sleeve surgery since its thru the hospital's insurance. my last weigh in visit is on december 21st. after that how long do u guys think it will take to approve me for surgery?? i hope it doesnt take long since its the holidays. idk if im gona have the surgery after new years or right after xmas.
