Finally17 54 Posted April 29, 2017 How long was the process from beginning to approval? I heard some insurances want you to wait 6 months. 1 Rita48 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rita48 65 Posted April 30, 2017 How long was the process from beginning to approval? I heard some insurances want you to wait 6 months.I had to do a monthly visit with my PCP for 4 months. The day I left my PCP office, I called surgeon office (while still sitting in parking lot [emoji6]) and schedule an appointment. Once paperwork was submitted I was officially approved for procedure in 3 days! 1 dmvladybug reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
