chrissy1147 21 Posted February 2, 2013 I know how you feel. I have been approved by insurance as well but the scheduler has not called yet. I think I am being obnoxious and am calling everyday, but this is life changing so I think I'm aloud to be a little obsessive. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I waited 2 before I emailed[/quote'] Let me finish this...lol I waited 2 weeks before I emailed. Was told I would hear something in a few days. Waited another week and then was told that the scheduler was out of the office for at least another week. Finally got my date on the 27th of January. It felt almost disrespectful to me that they kept putting me off. Just be honest and tell me it is going to be 4-6 weeks or whatever. I put off several things in anticipation of a January surgery date and now things are all discombobulated and with the way my pre diet is effecting my moods who knows what will get done.lol Good luck!

daluvoflife 41 Posted February 4, 2013 Well for me I have a surgery date.of 2/19 and all I need to make sure is that I am approved before I get completely happy. Although I'm positive everything will go through. Can I call my insurance company to find out if a request has been made? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Although I'm positive everything will go through. Can I call my insurance company to find out if a request has been made? YES U Can! I did and had my doc do a doc to doc consult with the approving dr at the insurance co.... Approval in less than a week from convo And he told my doc one thing I was missing that I took care of two days later. My doc faxed copy of proof of resolution of issue to the insurance co. Doc and I got the approval by phone two days later.....:-) good luck! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
