HAS ANYONE GOt APPROVED IN 3 MONTHS??

i went to my frist consult today and they said they are going to try to get me approved in 3 months has anyone got approved in 3 months and what insurance did you have

I went to the informational meeting March 12th, got approval late April, and am having surgery May 22nd. I have Anthem BC/BS.

wow you got really lucky!!! good for you.. i had to wait the entire six mo...

i replied to your post before...i to have chn..and they require a minimum of six months nutrition counseling.. there is not much you can do to get around that... i only know bc i was scheduled to have surgery back in march...but then the insurance changed and required the six months.. so i had to wait.... it has taken me a total of six mo to get the surgery.. i wish you the best of luck

My husband from start to finish was four weeks.  He did all pre op tests, had his initial visit and did all his required meetings and got approved in that time frame.  It was very quick.  We have BCBS federal plan.

This was prior to the necessary 6 mos waiting period that most ins cos require you to do, now.

i went to my first seminar first week in Aug. and I had my surgery the second week of Sept.
If you want to get it done fast - it can be done.

Same time frame as Karen C.  

The Empire Plan (United Health Care for doc, Empire BCBS for hosp). 

Slight delay because office held paperwork about ten days after it was already complete but both insurers approved me within 24 hrs of receipt.
