I am so nervous, excited, and scared!!!

I am not sure on surgery date yet. Calling today to find out
-
I am getting conflicting reports from my doctor's office and the insurance company about what is required. Dr says 90 days, phone call with agent says policy doesn't have that requirement. Additionally, I started this journey at a BMI of 41 but since being on the "required" weight loss plan I am scared of dropping below 40 and not being approved. Any advice? I have my psych eval and required post-procedure NUT visit done. I hate to wait another 60 days for nothing...

After getting conflicting requirements from my doctor's office and my insurance rep we decided to submit today based on the insurance rep's instructions. Nervous and excited! -
I have BCBSTX. Please pray this goes through. Thanks!

I am so confused. My doctor's assistant is insisting on 3 months supervised diet, but when I called BCBsTX they did not have a time frame requirement. The assistant's response was that she could try submitting now, but I could be denied. Then I started this with a BMI of 41 but after a month I am down to a 39 and afraid they won't approve me. So confused!! Any advice?
