That is awesome!! Lucky you

My surgeon required a psych eval,upper gi,colonoscopy, and blood work. My insurance was the one that required the 6 month diet program.

Hey Everyone!! I finally got an exact date with out errors :) It will be on the 29th of October. Woohooo!!! Its been a long road I swear I had a date already for the 9/24 but than the insurance said they didn't want to pay for the sleeve. So I had to get with my benefits team at the hospital and they got me an advocate for this situation. We were able to work everything out and it got approved!!! So exciting but nervous I am 25 going on 26 9/22 been married for 3 yrs and no kids due to pcos. I live in Sherwood, Arkansas and work at a hospital in Little Rock, AR under Patient Access in the ER. I have been struggling with weight issues since I was 13 I'm fed up with obesity. Question: How much are you having to pay out of pocket? I met my deductible but now I'm in my co insurance and have to pay 1700. Doesn't count the 600 for my Dr.Visit with Dr.Baker

I am using Dr. John Baker in Little Rock Arkansas

Just wanted to see if anyone else's surgery was approved under the short term disability? I am at that cross in my path have to submit all my information tomorrow.

Thanks y'all I feel way better now!!!
