I didn't have to wait that long maybe 3 weeks. Your surgeons office should know by now. I had to do a couple requirements first though

Call them, they have probably already approved you. They did mine in 4 days

I have BCBS AL and the first time my papers were submitted it took exactly 30 days and I was denied. The second time my papers were submitted I was approved in a week. Ultimately they have 30 days to review in Alabama.
