BCBS is approving now!!!

Dr. Speigal's office is getting a lot of approvals from BCBS right now...........I have a PPO. You must get the proper docs and it has to be structured the way they want to have it, but it was worth the 3 mo. ordeal. I went through the same delays from my PCP and they don't want to get as involved as they have to. It paid off as I got my approval yesterday. I should have my Lap BAnd surgery in about 3 wks. Just so you know....................let me know if you have questions on the format to file this information to get the approval the first time!!!!

Yes I would love to have your help I actually work for Anthem BCBS but I have lumenous so any advice you have I would greatly appreciate it thanxs....

Hey Martha Lynn- I came accross your post and noticed that the BCBS is approving now??? Is this the Blue Cross Blue Shield?? Just checking for sure because I have been struggling for like the past 2 years trying to find a way to pay for the procedure and I was curious if this is correct, do you happen to have any tips for me as far as getting approved by BCBS? My PCP will and has gladly given me referrals so I guess any help you could provide would be sooo gratefully appreciated! I am hoping to have the gastric bypass but I see you've gone for the lap band right?? Well congrats on getting your day and I wish you nothing but the best of luck throughout your operation! Thank you for your time! God Bless Megan
