sbekch 19 Posted February 6, 2013 Now the real wait begins! My PA emailed me to let me know that she has submitted my paperwork to the insurance and they tell her to wait at least 15 business days to hear back from them. I have Anthem BCBS, so if you have the same insurance...how long is the real wait? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

caglefan69 37 Posted February 7, 2013 Congrats!! I am hoping for the first full week of April but I wouldn't mind having it earlier! Who is your insurance with? I have California blue shield. There were soooo many hoops to jump through! 6 month weight loss with daily food/ exercise journals, weekly weigh ins at the doctor plus monthly physician visit. pulmonary function test, ecg, stress test, upper gi, abdominal ultrasound, chest xray, nutritionist clearance, psychiatric clearance, medical clearance (blood panel/physical). I had my first visit July 17. Glad all the pre op work was worth it and i finally have a date! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
