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?

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

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
