Pending Insurance Approval

[inneedofhelp 0]

Hi everyone,

I'm fairly new here. I've been lurking for awhile, but only posted an introduction about a week ago. I met with the surgeon today for my final appointment, before submitting the information to the insurance company. I am soooo nervous. I have Carefirst MD Bluechoice and they are usually pretty good, but I am so afraid they will deny my request. My BMI is 40.1 which meets the minimum requirement with out comorbidities.

Well I was hoping for some company during my wait. I am crossing my fingers for a February date!

Welcome to LapBandTalk!

Be sure to check the Insurance section, the section where people from your state hang out, and the Pre-Op section for starters. You'll find lots of info and plenty of company there. :wink:

Hi Sheila !

Waiting for the insurance approval was the hardest part for me, so I know how you feel. Once you get it the rest is easy..... Good luck !
