Brandy~ 2 Posted April 2, 2008 Ok so I submitted to insurance today... well my surgeon did... The request for preauthorization for LB. So what I am wondering is if you have or had an insurance that says they pay for it like mine does how long did it take them to give you pre auth if you supplied everything required? Wonder if I am looking at more than the time my surgeon told me which was 10 BUSINESS days Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TulipStar 2 Posted April 3, 2008 I think it is a roll of the dice. A co-worker was approved in 3 weeks. We have the same insurance and mine took 11 weeks. They made me jump through quite a few hoops and there was a lot of back and forth.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
triser72 0 Posted April 3, 2008 The doctor's nurse called me today to tell me the same thing - she submitted all of my paperwork for approval and to call the insurance company in 10 days and starting hounding them. Yippee!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
