Watiting on Approval!! Anthem BCBS Help!



Recommended Posts

Hi everyone, I have started the process for my band, and have a few questions. I have Anthem BCBS of SC, and was wondering if there approval time is fast or slow? I have had my Nutritionist and Psycologist appt, I've received my referral from my primary physician, and now am waiting for insurance approval. Anybody know. I am very excited to start this journey after many years of diet pills and yo yo dieting. I am a 33 year old married mother of two and look forward to my new life, with the full support of my husband, children, family and my whole church family. Thanks for reading my post and look forward to receiving some answers.

Thanks!:thumbup:

Good luck!! I hope you hear something really soon. I have BCBS of IL, but am currently doing my 6 months supervised weightloss program, so I am still in the waiting stages. Hope you get a quick quick approval and a very quick surgery date too! Good luck!

Good luck with the weightloss program. I too have tried diet pills (phentermine) and Health Weigh Weight Loss plus many other diets I yoyo'd on. I'll keep you in my prayers, and let me know how it's going, and I'll do the same.

Have a Great Day!

I have Highmark BCBS and I have had my paperwork submitted to the ins. co since 7/7 and just had to submit additional paperwork today.

Good luck on your journey

I have Anthem BCBS in KY and it took less than 3 weeks from the time my surgeon submitted the paperwork until they approved.

Good luck!
