Waiting for approval- Frustration!!!
I am in the process of trying to receive gastric bypass. I have dont all the required pre-op stuff. Now i am waiting for approval from bcbs medicare. My doctors office says they are waiting on my insurance. My insurance says there has not been anything submitted to them for approval. I am just frustrated!!!
If your insurance hasn't received the info, your doctor needs to send it again. Your insurance cannot approve it if it hasn't been submitted.
Please note: I AM NOT A DOCTOR. If you want medical advice, talk to your doctor. Whatever I post, there is probably some surgeon or other health care provider somewhere that disagrees with me. If you want to know what your surgeon thinks, then ask him or her. Check out my blog.
My BCBS was pretty fast at approving mine, but I called them and asked them about it. Stay on them, that will help.
