Question:
How long is too long for insurance approval and....

First, I've been waiting since June 2nd to hear about my insurance approval. Long story short, I've been told twice now that I'm approved but then the insurance company took it back. Secondly...since my approval (assuming it comes) is only good for 90 days...what are the chances that my surgeon will work hard to get me on his schedule since he has informed me he's book until March of next year.    — Renee B.

Renee, WELCOME BACK GIRL!!!!! ;) Since I last read your profile I have been doing some heavy duty praying for you. I know how discouraged you have been. I also have Dr. Richards as a surgeon. I think if you talk to them they should be able to accomodate you. The girl I spoke to that forwarded my info to Dr. Richards Secretary, her name is Denise. If I can be of any help email me at: [email protected]. Once again it's nice to see you back!

I think it dpends on your insurance company and how fast your surgeon's office works. It took my health insurance 2 weeks to approve me. I am one of the lucky ones... w/ insurance at least.
