HeavyResQ12

I go for my first consultation tomorrow. I have been a sponge and taking in everything I could read on gastric bypass. Today I called my insurance just to find out what the pre-qualifiers are. I was shocked to find out that there are none and if the surgeon sends in the paperwork and they approve it then I can be qualified for surgery immediately. Everything I have read suggests insurance companies want periods of diet and other prequalifiers....is this possible that an insurance company can be that easy and literally allow the decision to be yours and your surgeons!? Any comments are welcome. Thanks...and great forum! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Thanks for the responses ...reading some of the horror stories of all the hurdles some people have had to jump through had me feeling apprehensive because I've committed in my mind to do this and did not want to wait months on end to get it done. Nothing else in life is ever easy so maybe this is my golden ticket LOL Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
