The insurance worker from my doctor's office submitted my info to BCBS on Friday and received a call from them today saying I was approved!!!! She was shocked and asked if they were calling on the right patient because she had just faxed my information on Friday. She told me how blessed I was because she was working on another patient's file and she has been jumping through hoops with her insurance company for the past three weeks. I do feel blessed because last week I had one Doctor office holding me up but I refused to give up until I got my records from them. My hard work paid off. All I can do is shed tears of Joy!!!!!!

Re: We were shocked!!!
Congratulations! I got approved in 20 minutes for mine. I was in complete shock when I got the call back so quickly. That was right before Thanksgiving and I am already sleeved. I think my head is still spinning! Good luck!
