Hi everyone! I have BCBS Federal, and I just got all my paperwork (psych eval, 3 months of doctor's notes, etc.) sent to the surgeon's office so they can review it and then submit to the insurance company. My first month of the 3 month physician weight loss program, I had a loss of a pound, then the second month I had another loss of a pound, but the third month I had a gain of a little less then two pounds. I'm so worried that my request will be denied because of that gain! Has anyone else had a similar experience? If so, were you approved or denied? Thanks!

Hi Artsy. I'm new to this site; in fact, this is my very first post. I'm just beginning to look into the requirements for surgery as well, so I'm perusing the forums to gather as much information as I can. I found the information at the link below concerning federal bcbs requirements. I hope this helps you out. http://obesitycoverage.com/bcbs-federal-employee-program-and-florida-blue-weight-loss-surgery-requirements/
