Surgery approval, How long did it take for you to get your insurance approval?



Recommended Posts

I'm just curious to know, how long it took for everyone to get approve after you submitted to your insurance and what insurance do you have?

It only took 2 weeks for my insurance to approve my surgery. I have Capital Health Plan in Florida.

My request was submitted last Thursday. I was told it would take 5-10 business days as it has to go to two insurance companies. United health care and BCBS. Keep you posted.

They told me 2 weeks and I submitted monday and knew in friday. I advise you call them every couple days otherwise you will be waiting on a letter in the mail and it will take much longer. If approved they can tell you if u call, but they will not call you. I have federal bcbs
