eee.vii.eee

I have BCBSFL FEP and they only required 3 mos of supervised weight loss, proof you tried other methods unsuccessfully to lose weight and a psychological evaluation,etc. Approval only took two weeks from when my office submitted the paperwork. The process for my wasn't difficult overall since I began everything last October.

You're probably undergoing the process already but I have BCBS FEP Standard and they just approved my surgery after 3 mos. of visits. Approval only took two weeks. So far I only know my out of pocket for the surgeon and thats only $160.00.

Thanks Jimi. I wish you the best of luck on your journey.

Hi All My name is Erin from Florida and I just joined this forum. I'm contemplating wsl at this point because I've gotten to big for my britches so to speak and I could really use some help getting where I need to be. Right now I'm only considering lap band and the sleeve but I'm leaning towards that lap band since I'm in my 20s and can't help but think that I may or may not need some of that stomach one day. I'll be attending a seminar tonight at a local hospital tonight and another seminar at a different hospital tomorrow just so I can choose what place may be best for me. Many of the posts on here have been very informative thankfully and hopefully tonight I'll have a better understanding of the process and know which procedure would be best. I look forward to getting this journey started and getting to know you all. Happy Monday!!!
