Awaiting BCBS approval in Fayetteville

Hi,

I am waiting for approval and hope it comes fast because I want to get banded in early August.

Would love to chat with others in town getting ready to get banded or who have already had the surgery.

How long did the whole approval process take you? How long between your initial consultation with the surgeon to the actual surgery?

From the time everything was submitted to insurance to approval it took two weeks.

It took 2 months to get all the testing done that had to be submitted to insurance. It probably could have been faster but I have a very busy work schedule and had to schedule around that.
