I had surgery Dec 2000, it took about 1 1/2 weeks for approval, Dr's office handled all the paperwork. Since then I believe they have switched Dr's who they will okay for surgery. My friend, appealed for the same Dr. I had and was able to get it ok'd because we knew someone else who had complications, and continues with complications and based on his experience she too was ok'd after 2nd appeal.

Hi I have PacifiCare Colorado, have no major comorbs, but a bad family history, and was approved, as soon as my doc submitted the paper work. Had surgery in July 01.

I have Pacificare. Approved right away. Remember thoug, it has alot to do with what kind of coverage your employer has purchased. Mine was through PERS (Public Employees).
