BCBS of IL. Approved me!



Recommended Posts

So BCBS of Il approved me after only 24 hours! Soooo, why don't I have a date you ask?..well it's because I only know because I called the company today, they said they sent out an approval letter to me and my surgeons office. I left a message with them so I'm hoping for a date tomorrow..aaah the waiting game.

You know I actually called her, because BCBS told me they'd sent out a letter to me and the office and of course neither of us had received it (that was a week after they had already approved me!) so I called and told them that the insurance company said they'd approved me and my coordinator confirmed that same day, called me back with a date the next day and my last appointments. I wanted so badly to get in this March and my office is so great they were actually able to make it happen!
