  1. Hello everyone! I have Tricare prime which is now run by United Health Care! I've gone through the mandatory requirements to be considered for the surgery and yesterday my PCM wrote me a referral! I'm beyond excited that the ball is officially moving but I've read horror stories about people's experiences with Tricare Prime West. Has anyone really recently went through this process with the new switch to United? I'm petrified that I'm going to be denied even though my BMI is around 49. Thanks!

    Hey Nee! The process so far has went pretty smoothly no real hiccups in the road. I first saw my PCM in April 2013, and now on Tuesday, September 10th, I go and see my surgeon again and I'll get my surgery date for the lapband and also that when he'll send him my actual referral for the surgery. I'll definitely let you know. UHC Military has played a long so far, but the biggest battle of getting the actual surgery has not yet been attempted. I'll keep you up to date (:
