Incomplete paperwork/documentation or now meeting the requirements so I would definitely go to your insurance carriers website and check out what they require to be approved...im waiting to hear from my primary insurance company now (Cigna) its been 2 weeks since paperwork was submitted...my secondary insurance (BCBS) approved me in 7 days!!!
