still waiting?

I am still waiting for an answer is that normal for it to take this long. medicare and medicaid are my insurances.

Hi Marie, I would call the surgeons office asap and speak to - the medical assistant and find out whats going on. Good Luck, Monica

I did that last monday. I dont want to cut off my nose.

I call once a week. Even though you called last week, can't hurt to call again. Its that squeaky wheel thing! Lise

i am waiting still also, and i dont know when your surgery date is, but mine is january 23, and when i called yesterday she said she was still submitting approvals for early january and she does them in order of the surgery date. good luck! Karyn

They wont give me a surgery untill I get insurance approval.

HI Marie, It's true about the squeeky wheel I called at least once a week sometimes more and I got my stuff all done and got a date sooner than others who were dealing with the same agency and insurance as I was. Some of these people are still struggling with waiting due to not making phone calls. So my suggestion is to call them and do it at least once a week. Take care, Anita
