TashaB88 5 Posted April 17, 2014 So I was notified today that I have a "tentative" surgery date of May 23. I qas told that insurance needed a prospective date but they haven't fully said "yes" to approval. Has this happened to anyone else? Also is it safe to say I'm pretty much approved?

jtickle 295 Posted April 17, 2014 Some insurance companies need a date of service along with your info. I have UHC and I had surgery on my back in February. A soon as they found out a date of service, they actually went faster giving me a decision. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TashaB88 5 Posted April 17, 2014 Yeah that's what I was thinking. I was just hoping that this meant I was pretty much approved for the surgery. I wouldn't see why they would ask for a date and then say nope never mind on the surgery. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
