Hello, my name is Brittany. I’m hoping to get some more info about the waiting process of getting the surgery. I have Washington Medicaid and my surgeon has sent off the paperwork for an approval. Does anyone know how long it takes for an answer back?

Shocking to me mine was approved in a week after my medical reports where done and they had all paper work. 1st class was in August, last class was 10/18. Paper work to insurance was sent in on 11/9 and I was approved on 11/13 and Surgery date is 12/11

Oh ok that’s not bad at all and you have Molina Medicaid also?

Are they the same? I didn’t think they were

[Bluesheeler 16]

No not the same. I have Medicare and if Medicare doesn't pay 100% then Medicaid picks the balance up. Medicare is Federal and Medicaid is the state your in

And that's who covered mine in Ohio. And I think @ Bluesheeler is. in Maryland. We will get back. to a common purpose after Saturday, we have a foot ball game coming up, His Terrapins versus my Buckeyes. I of course think my team will win handily, he probably doubts it. I feel sorry for the Rutgers fans, the Scarlet Knights aren't doing TOO GOOD this year.
