Hi everyone. I have a question and if anyone can answer it I would greatly appreciate it. Does anyone know how long it takes to hear from medicaid about being approved for gastric bypass? I am really anxious and I wanna have a feel for how long it might be. Thanks everyone!!!!

I don't have an answer for you - but for me the waiting was the HARDEST part of this whole journey. Just keep telling yourself that you're closer than you've ever been. Good Luck and hopefully you'll hear something really soon.

I agree with Iris the waiting part is I think worse than the actual surgery.
You can always call the insurance people maybe start by doing it once a week.
Keep in mind you are the one who is having to go through this not them so dont be feeling like you are bothering them.
This is for your health.
The way I stayed on top of the waiting game is I had copies of all my test results and faxed many of them myself.
This way I knew when they were sent.
I have heard some places dont want you to fax so in that case going in person is a good thing too but always write down the name of who you took them too and the date and keep copies.                                                      Annie

It is never too late to be what you might have been.?
