    Got approved

    The request was submitted on July 1, last Wednesday. I called them yesterday, July 7 on another matter and also learned that I had been approved. So just less than a week. I was told to expect a verbal approval in a week and the official approval letter in another week.
  4. I have bluecross/blueshield in Texas. They required a five year history of a bmi of 40 or higher, and a six month physician supervised program. I joined weightwatchers online for $30 a month and started their program including the weekly meetings. I also scheduled a monthly appointment with my family doctor specifically to discuss the diet effort. Total cost: $180 for weight watchers and about $175 for office visit co-pays. Southwest Bariatric submitted my claim for approval on July 1st and I was informed today that I had been approved.
  5. Hi all, I am new here but looking forward to learning what I can. I am happy to say that Bluecross Blueshield approved my surgery! I need to receive the letter, see the surgeon, and schedule a date. I am hoping to have the surgery done by the end of July. So it begins.
