I am looking to get the lapband surgery and have Cigna. I have read the hoops you have to jump through to be approved. One hoop appears to be a 2 year BMI history. However, looking online at cigna documentation, I don't see that stip. This document from cigna was put in place on Jun 15, 2009. What are your thoughts? http://www.cigna.com/customer_care/healthcare_professional/coverage_positions/medical/mm_0051_coveragepositioncriteria_bariatric_surgery.pdf

Nevermind - just called cigna and my plan doesn't cover it... go figure - $545/mo and they don't cover it...wow
