Worried My Insurance will not approve surgery
Hi, I would gain a few pounds your BMI is 39.9! Good luck! I would start the process! Also, call the bariactric surgeon's office to make a consultation appointment. They will be able to advise you. Make it happen!Hello everyone, I just went to the seminar for LAP-BAND® on Saturday and found out that BCBS requires 40 BMI if you have no comorbidities. My BMI is 39 and I dont have any comorbities. I talked to my primary care Dr and she said she thinks LAP-BAND® is a great idea for me. I dont know what I should do should I gain a few pounds to get to 40 BMI? Also I need 5yrs of being overweight proof from drs. Well I have been overweight for the past 5yrs but only this heavy for past 3yrs or so. I am 225 and 5'3 and in past 5 yrs I have gone from 165 to 180 to 195 to being over 200 the past few years. I dont know I am just worried I will not be approved. The WLS is supposed to give me a call Wed. I cant wait! I want this sooooo bad! Im ready!:thumbup:
