I have blue care network of MIchigan and FINALLY after my doctor SUBMITTED the paper work, they said it would take up to 16 business days to hear back from them but in reality I heard back from them in a week, 5 days, it was pretty quick..

 I have United and they approved me a 7 days.  They even called me to get something they had missplaced.  Good luck.

 Took me about five days, but I called every single day asking the insurance. Stay on top of em so you dont get pushed to the side.
