Approved in One DAY!!! BCBS

[BSWhip08 23]

All -

I saw the dietician yesterday - she faxed the paperwork to my doctor this morning and I got the call at 4:00 today saying they got approval from the insurance company. I have Horizon Blue Cross Blue Shield of New Jersey. I had heard that they were quick -

Now I am just nervous -

I am scheduled for surgery on April 29th after I return for Disney with the family.

WOW.......:redface:

BCBS MA does not require a 6 month wait, as far as I know. I have BCBS MA and don't have to do a 6 month diet or anything like that. Good luck!
