Insurance Approval!!!!
I completed my 6 months medical weight management and psych eval at the beginning of June. Submitted to insurance, and in less than a week I am approved. I have my meeting with NUT in the morning and am hoping to get my surgery scheduled for mid July. The office is kinda weird and said it may be about a week before we can schedule surgery because they schedule all pre-op stuff at that time so they have to have dedicated time to work through that with me. Fingers crossed we get it scheduled soon. This journey has been quite unique. My original surgeon announced retirement just when my 6 months was about up, so I had to pick a new one and get in for a consult before I could submit to insurance. Working nights and getting to the Drs during the day makes for one tired guy, but this is my priority. Can't wait to get my sleeve!!!
Woo! Congratulations! I'm really happy for you :)
I remember those days of pre-op... I felt I had multiple appointments every single day. It was crazy!
