We DO have lots in common, sent you a private message.We have the Direct POS plan, whatever that mean. We just switched over on the 1st. I have no idea if a weight history is required for me. Just read on here that many folks needed them.
I am so glad that I found this thread! My husband works for NYCTA and we are planning to start the process to be banded this year. I am SO glad to find out that Empire BCBS will cover it without having us jump through to many hoops. GHI was always a fight for everything it seemed. We will be meeting with a surgeon in a week, I'm SO excited.
What type of five-year weight history was required for them? Medical records or could we just fill out our weights for some years? My husband has only been to the doctor a handful of times in the past 10 years.
