Has anyone been approved by their insurance even if they were not at the 35 BMI the insurance requires if their Primary Doc goes to bat for you??? I know many people out there think that being a BMI of 32 I should just lose the weight myself. I have many times and it always comes back. I can lose 30 lbs in three months on my own, I have done it befores however it is so difficult to keep it off.

Thank you I just go up and down all the time, I go anywhere from 180 down to 130 and it has been that way since I was thirteen years old. This is something I really want to do and I have a follow up appointment with my family doctor on Wednesday. I guess if it is meant to be it will happen.
I appreciate the replies...

Yeah that is what I am worried about. I think both of the insurances are the same.

Thank you, it is all I can think about...

Hello my name is Nikki and I spoke with my family doc yesterday and told him I was interested in getting the lap band. He gave me all the ins and out and asked me if I really want to do it. I said yes, I know I want to and he said he would write a letter to my insurance company once I found out if it is covered under my policy.
I have SISC III Anthem & BC/BS Federal... I have Lap Band VIP checking my insurance, I know SISC Anthem covers at 80% but not sure about BC/BS Federal. Has anyone had any experience with either of these insurances or a "lower bmi???
Just anxious and glad to be here to read all the post.
