Hi there.. I am too nervous that I won't get approved also. Although TriCare (Prime) approved 4 doctors visits. My PCM has filled out the Letter of Medical Necessity Paperwork, Clearance for Surgery and Blood Work. I go see the Bariatric Surgeon on Monday. I am hoping that everything will go smoothly !!! My BMI is 39-40 with a history of hypertension, high cholesterol and lower back pain. Just wish me luck for MONDAY !!
