Today I completed my psych and NUT eval. I'm not quite sure of the next step so I will call the surgeon's office tomorrow. I have Carefirst BC/BS and hopefully they will be submitting my information for approval. :purplebananna:

Any information from you experience will be so appreciated!

It depends on your situation (your surgeons process and your insurance requirements).

I had my initial consult with the surgeon, then psych eval. (2 visits), then nutritionist (2 visits), Upper GI with the radiologist, Blood work/EKG/surgery release letter with family doctor, two week liquid Protein diet, pre-op visit with surgeon to go over all the above then a couple days later surgery.

Like you, I started the process before I was actually approved by insurance. I was having the surgery whether approved or not. Otherwise I would not have gotten to far into it before being approved.
