    I confirmed with another rep and my provided that preauthorization is not required but because they could look for a reason to reject we asked for a review prior to services. They submitted documentation for review. It is really the same thin they just don't call it an authorization. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

    I just called. I was told that state employees Florida BCBS does not require prior authorization. Only documentation of meeting the plan requirements. The rep said this could even be submitted with the claim at time of service. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

    Thanks. I'm worried and nervous. My provider will call on Wednesday to check the status. I guess I just need to trust that my bariatric office are seasoned at this process. They know what it takes and if they thought it was impossible, they wouldn't waste their time either. Praying it goes smooth Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
