Horizon BCBS 30 days

[Pinkgirl1234 761]

Ugh...hope so

[sumbrown 26]

Any luck?

[Pinkgirl1234 761]

Still waiting....

I was called for my pre-op testing...there are so many people trying to get in before the end of the year it is crazy

[Pinkgirl1234 761]

More nervous about the start of my pre-op diet next week....

[sumbrown 26]

Crossing fingers!!! Everything will be ok.

I understand I'm doing my pre op testing now. Hope to have surgery in January. I just hate the waiting game

I thought BCBS doesn't cover bariatric surgery

[MRSJONES305 55]

It depends on what state u you in and what your employer decide to cover I'm in Florida and as an State employee it's covered

[Pinkgirl1234 761]

Also you just have to be diligent with all steps.Start with an accounting of your weight with your primary...at least 6 months and start from there.

[MRSJONES305 55]

I don't have to do the 6 month wait, my pcp submitted my referral to surgeon, all I have to do now is psc test, then blood work and send off to insurance for approval

I wonder why my insurance coordinator told me thirty days before procedure?

Hi I'm in NJ too and my husband has BCBS through his union and I was told the same thing it takes about 30 days for approvals to process.

It's funny that you post that today. Just got a call from my insurance coordinator. She submitted it today. Thanks lol! About how long did it take for a response?

[Careysgirl 20]

My coordinator has not submitted my paperwork yet because all I have left to do is my sleep study. Let me know how it goes and how soon they get back to you.

[sumbrown 26]

I sure will.

[sumbrown 26]

My stuff was submitted last Thursday and I was approved today. How did your sleep study go?
