Hoping for April surgery

[cindyiz44 4]

Has anyone here had their surgery at the cleveland clinic in Cleveland? If so, how long after insurance approval did you have to wait to get a surgery date?

I'm in New Hampshire - so I cant answer for OH. but, I have my appointment with my surgeon next month. I'm GUESSING i'll have a date with in 2 months. but it does depend on his schedule. As far as insurance - I call them constantly and make sure they have what THEY need. So far so good.

I am in OH-'' my guesses low BMI, no co morbidity, company deleted to save money (which is a DIRTY trick) hadn't worked at current employment long enough for coverage or somehow else fell between the cracks. Ohio Medicaid does pay for bariatric surgery, 3 months of nutritional consult etc. So otherwise your guess is as good as mine! And if you have the Obamacare, it's covered, when they added maternity coverage Bariatrics got "grandfathered" in. This was told to me by someone in the know
