I GUESS IT DEPENDS ON HOW BAD YOU WANT WLS. IF YOU MEAN HOW OFTEN CAN YOU BUG THE INS CO FOR AN ANSWER I WOULD SAY EVERY WEEK OR TWO. I WANTED TO CALL EVERY DAY UNTIL I GOT AN ANSWER BUT MANAGED NOT TO. (DROVE MY FAMILY & FRIENDS CRAZY INSTEAD). TO YOU IT IS A MAJOR LIFE DECISION BUT TO THE INS CO YOUR JUST ANOTHER CLAIM IN A PILE & THEY WILL GET TO YOU IN TIME. MOST OF THEM HAVE TIME FRAMES THEY HAVE TO WORK IN (MINE INS IS AETNA & THEY MUST RESPOND IN 30 DAYS). SO I GAVE THEM THIER 30 DAYS BUT AFTER THAT CALLED ONCE A WEEK TO FOLLOW UP.
