Insurance response

Approximately how long did you have wait to hear back from insurance with a denial or approval?

How far out was your surgery scheduled after approval?

I heard back a week after my Surgeon submitted my paperwork. The day I called the insurance company to confirm that the paperwork was received, the insurance company told me I was approved. Then 20 minutes later my Surgeon called with the approval and the surgery date.

Last visit: 1/10/2017

Paperwork Submitted: 1/18/2017

Approval Date: 1/25/2017

My surgeon had many patients, he submits everyone's paperwork every two weeks. That is why it took so long to submit my paperwork.
