Crkrjax76 76 Posted July 12, 2013 The Dr's office submitted to insurance 7/3, but because of the 4th, they didn't actually "receive" it until Friday 7/5. They require 5 business days. So, hopefully I will have an answer today! I'm going to call again this afternoon. I've been pestering the insurance company to death! Making sure they had what they needed and when I should expect an answer. I will be soo disapointed if I'm denied. But the nurse said she would be extrememly surprised if I was. She said everything she sent met their criteria for surgery. FINGERS CROSSED!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Equestriangirl 11 Posted July 12, 2013 The waiting is murder, first the wait for auth, then the wait for surgery... I filed my time reading everything I could about weight loss surgery, studying all the guidelines, going to support groups. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
