I called last Wed and Crystal said she was putting my packet together to submit to insurance.  I still have not heard from her.  How long does it take usually?

Michelle, wooo hooo!! Looks like you better start packing.  I'm not sure how long your insurance will take,  What Insurance do you have, maybe someone on here will have the same and can give you an idea.  Good luck

I would give her a call. They understand how it is for us with the waiting go ahead and call. Or call your ins co. You should be able to get an answer from  one or the other.

I have Fiserv Health.  I was told that they take up to 30 days to approve.

i would definately call crystal to confirm it's been sent to your insurance. after that i would call your insurance daily to see where your case stands. stress to them you need to make work arrangements, child care, etc. so the sooner you know the easier it will be to coordinate other things. once i knew crystal had sent it i bugged the insurance company. she will call immediatley when she knows. she's good about that.

let us know. i'm very excited for you.

Like the others said - give her a jingle. Even though your insurance says it can be up to 30 days - doesn't mean it will. I have BC/BS of Ga - they say 30 days for approval but it was done in 48 hours.

Michelle,  I have Fiserv also and they told me once it was sent in Fiserv takes about three weeks to make a decision. Do you work for CMMC?  I work for CMH and we both have Fiserv so was just wondering? Kelly

Kelly, Yes I do work at CMMC.  I will call her today.
