sarhgrif 127 Posted January 4, 2018 Submitted request for bypass today. Really hoping for a quick approval. I am having my surgery done at St Vincent bariatric center of excellence in Carmel, IN. Anyone else had/having surgery there? So anxious!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gotalose 24 Posted January 4, 2018 How could you tell it was submitted? I'm hoping my paperwork was sent in yesterday and now I'm just waiting. Not sure how long it takes for them to get it into the system and review for approval. I'm nervous. Scheduled for 1/18 in NC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sarhgrif 127 Posted January 4, 2018 Well I submitted it to the insurance specialist at my doctors office. So it should be sent in. I have anthem through the state insurance. Who do you have? Let me know when you hear something! I don't have a date yet☹️ that's what I'm hoping for with approval! 1 Gotalose reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jcslmt 0 Posted January 10, 2018 I am waiting to hear back about transferring there. Dr Diaz is who my friend recommended. I started at Community North but it's just not a good fit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Now I'm just waiting. They told me to call back on Thursday but I'll probably call tomorrow evening I'm very anxious especially since I need to make arrangements for next week if everything goes as planned. I haven't told my work yet so I need to give them a heads up that I'll be out but don't want to tell them anything unless I get approval. Have you heard anything?
