My surgeons office submitted to BCBS federal for approval this past monday. I thought that jumping through all the hoops would be the hardest part and that is just so not the case.

I hate waiting. I have never wanted it to be Monday so badly!

I am hoping to hear some good news on Monday!

Last week when we submitted for approval, they asked for a tentative surgery date so hopefully that means good things.

BC/BS Federal is the best. Because you have met all of the requirements, you will be approved fairly quickly.

I freak out over everything, no matter how confidant I am lol. I have my first psyc visit and I'm more worried about that than any other part of the process..I always wonder how often people don't get cleared for the psyc part and if they can ever try again or whatever. Anywho you aren't alone on the worrying part :) good luck!

I was super worried about the psych consult too, but it went really well! Don't be nervous.

I called today and they said it was in the final stages. I asked if I could call back later on today to get the final answer and she said probably not until the end of the week.

Arghhh! Waiting sucks. lol. I'm still gonna call back and see though.

call back and ask if anything is needed, info. also ask if there is any unofficial decision. ask if they are showing that all the qualifiers are met or not.

I called again about 1:30 and they said they just received it. They are annoying me.

I'm calling again now.
