Surgery date?



Recommended Posts

I am currently on month 5 of 6 for my supervised diet. I finish my last visit next month. If I have my visit in the early part of January. And insurance approves within a week (fingers crossed), will I be able to have my surgery in January as well? BTW I have UHC choice.

Once your insurance approves it's basically up to the surgeon's schedule. I'm guessing everyone does this differently. My surgical coordinator tentatively scheduled my surgery when they submitted everything to insurance. They were scheduling about 4 weeks out. That way, if insurance denied, we would just cancel it while I appealed. Thankfully it was approved and I didn't have to reschedule. Good luck to you.

My surgeon was scheduling 6 weeks out once I went for my final visit with him. :)
