Anyone not approved yet but hoping for december?

I'm starting the appeal process myself, but I'm praying to have this surgery before the end of the year!

Anyone else not approved yet but hoping for this year? What stage are you at?

I have one more appt to go at the end of the month. The scheduler said that once everything is approved I could possibly be squeezed into a December date. So I'm crossing my fingers because I am certainly ready. Its been a long 6 month process

Oh I hope you do!!!

How did you get a surgery date without preauthorization? I wish I could!

All tests are done, sent to insurance for approval. Hoping to get it done this year as I’ve met the annual deductible. Haven’t met with a surgeon. I’m assuming that will be the next step once insurance approves.

My insurance is trying to do a peer to peer review because the documentation from my pcp isnt clear about the 6 month diet

I was supposed to have my surgery in Dec. But it's now in January cuz I gained 8lbs yesterday should have been my last dietitian visit, but now it's next month.[emoji21]

Well@ Excited for a new me, Queebee34,OlRachel, Wicked winner. Are any of you ready to join Lyleta in December? Its a beautiful month to give yourself🎁the gift of an renewed life and better health!

Waiting on surgeon to schedule the peer to peer. I'm hopeful cause I have to be. If they dont accept that diet as a 6 month diet because of the chart notes then it looks like February for me. And a new deductible and all that crap

I am sooooo ready just waiting on the insurance company and surgeons office, I talked to the surgeons office yesterday and we are still waiting .....

[OlRachel 11]

Excited, have you called your insurance company directly to ask? How long has it been?

Just got scheduled for pre-op surgeon appointment on Dec 11 after which they will set my date. Should be before Dec 31. I think I’m going to go ahead a start the pre-op diet in the hopes of getting in sooner. If they have any cancellations I’ll be ready to go.
