2 years later-Glen Ellyn Illinois

I started this process of getting a breast reduction surgery approved by my insurance, BCBS. I met with four plastic surgeons in the last 2 weeks of October, and eliminated two right away. I had the other two PS submit claims and go from there. I have a preferred PS of course. I am waiting to see if my insurance approves me. I am thinking about the end of February to the beginning of March for surgery. I work in construction as an inspector and that time frame is one of slowest times of year for work. I plan to take a minimum of three weeks off. I will work light duty for 3 weeks before resuming my normal work activities. I have 13 days of paid vacation that I could use. I plan to inquire about short term disability instead of using my vacation days if possible. I plan to have a good friend stay with me for the first 2 weeks after surgery. I did receive a pre-certified letter from a hospital for outpatient services related to breast reduction surgery. I hope that this is a good sign. Maybe I am close to getting approved, I truly hope so.
