HIP NY INSURANCE
I have HIP Prime and had no problem w/ getting approval, what I did was call them first and see what their requirments were, then I handed all this information over to the individuals who worked for my surgeon (I just wanted to make their jobs easier), from the time the surgeons office sent over to paperwork it only took 1 week for approval, but I called everyday (just because I was so anxious).
Good Luck
