:rolleyes2:My husband works for AT&T in California and I had the surgery done in July under his United Health Care plan. United Health Care didn't even require any pre authorizations. When I first called UHC to find out if the surgery was covered I was told that there were pre authorizations required, so I fulfilled the pre authorizations then when the surgeons office called to get the authorization for surgery UHC told them that there weren't any pre authorizations that I was already covered. Your friend should call UHC herself and find out, I know my Dr's office spoke with someone named Jerry in Arizona. I know that is pretty vague but maybe helpful. Good Luck to your friend.

Hi my husband also works for AT&T in California and is in the union. I just had surgery in July and had no pre authorization requirements. My doctors office was really surprised, so far UHC has been great. Good luck

I think it means productive burp, I didn't know what it meant either.

I just got banded today and I forgot to ask if it is o.k. to sleep on my side, does anyone know?
