I'm so happy

I called the insurance co this evening on the way home.
 I got my approval!

Yea!!

Thank you so much for the reply.

  Doing the happy dance for you!!  Congratulations.

Let us know when you have a date.

Linda

Thanks!
I have a preliminary date of Dec. 10th, but she couldn't promise anything. I would hate to have to change doctor's  now. At first she stated Dec 30th and that will not work at all!  I'm not going to drag this into the new year.

Why is your date preliminary?  That is weird.  Tiffany said she couldn't promise anything?  why?  You are already approved.  

Good luck to you.

Those are great questions- I had those sames thoughts! My approval ......I'm approved -I knew before they knew(I asked if they had informed my surgeon yet and they replied no). I was calling to check if BCBS of Ala. had received a fax that was sent-I was told they still hadn't received the record. So, I faxed it to them on Thursday afternoon. On my way home I wanted to make sure they received, so I gave them another call- they had. They informed me I was approved over the phone.

My doctor's office would not schedule an official date until they recieved the letter in writing from my insurance company.  They got the letter within a week of getting the phone call.

Maybe that it-I was told after I made the appointments for Surgical clearances to call back so I could be scheduled. So,I'll just go to those appointments and see what happens.

CONGRATS!!!
