How long after approval

I was just curious to know how long after you got approved by insurance did you have surgery?

It all depends on how busy the surgeon is, and what his pre-op requirements are.  Mine was 5 weeks because of scheduling, with the last 10 days of it being my pre-op liquid diet. 

Seminar june 28....approved july3 consultation july 18 was told I was hard headed and had to lose 40 pounds before getting date..sugery orginally scheduled october 25 was cancelled for h plori rescehduled for nov 5

I had to be under Dr. Walton's care for six months before the insurance would approve. 

I am finishing up my 6 month supervised diet with Dr. Walton, I was just curious to know how long after the insurance was approved was the surgery scheduled?  I have done everything else needed.

I was scheduled after I lost the required pre-op weight...  I didn't have insurance to cover WLS so that wasn't an issue.  I'm thinking if you are at their required weight they will get you on the schedule soon.  You may have to "bug" them!!!
