mel959 8 Posted September 9, 2013 Just submitted everything this very instant. Its been a rough battle filled process. Hoping the surgeon's office submits everything to my insurance company. I Have bmi of 47, diabetes high blood pressure and sleep apnea. A trifecta. I am so nervous that my life is now in the hands of insurance people who don't see this as a means of having a chance at healthy life. Im praying and hopeful. Does anyone know how long it takes for UH/OXFORD. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
