sshrader1208 16 Posted July 18, 2019 My surgery is scheduled for next Wednesday, the 24th of July. My insurance has yet to approve it. I started my liquid diet yesterday. I can’t help but feel like insurance is going to deny my request and it’s driving me bananassssss!!! 1 1 1 GreenTealael, gabybab and FluffyChix reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
elcee 3,342 Posted July 18, 2019 Wow, that’s cutting it a bit fine. Fingers crossed that it all comes through in time 2 GreenTealael and FluffyChix reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sandra Nuelken 419 Posted July 18, 2019 I understand your nervousness. My surgery is the 30th My surgery wasn't scheduled until after the insurance approval. I hope all goes well. 1 1 FluffyChix and GreenTealael reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sshrader1208 16 Posted July 18, 2019 Definitely cutting it close!! They submitted everything last Monday the 8th! They certainly are taking their time. 1 GreenTealael reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GreenTealael 25,443 Posted July 18, 2019 You can totally call and inquire about the status of your approval Good Luck 💜 1 FluffyChix reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sshrader1208 16 Posted July 18, 2019 I have! There was a new form they needed my PCP to fill out and I’ve been waiting on them to send it back. I just called and they faxed it this morning so hopefully that’s the final thing to get my approval. Trying to remain positive. 1 1 Frustr8 and FluffyChix reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stitches78 65 Posted July 18, 2019 They tell you that once they have all the paperwork, it can take a month...but mine took 2 days. And from what I've heard, others have had similar experiences. I'm just surprised the doctors scheduled it before they had approval. I'm sure it will come in. 1 1 Frustr8 and FluffyChix reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GradyCat 3,696 Posted July 18, 2019 Good luck. My surgeon's office wouldn't put the surgery on their calendar until I had insurance approval. 1 FluffyChix reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mom_of_Chaos 545 Posted July 18, 2019 I was also in your shoes, my dr schedules 2-3 weeks out from when they submit everything so I was nervous but eventually it all worked out and I have faith that yours will too! Good Luck! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sshrader1208 16 Posted July 18, 2019 Thank you! I’m a bundle of nerves but I’m going to try to just enjoy the new few days off of work with my two little ones and let whatever happens, happen. The coordinator called and let me know that the last two forms they requested are sent back and she designated everything as “urgent” with my surgery date next to it so she said if she doesn’t hear anything tomorrow, she’ll give them a call Monday. 1 apiane reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
