I am in the begining stages of working on getting an approval from UHC for the Gastric Sleeve. They are requiring 5 years of medical records. I really haven't gone to the doctor much in the past 5 years. I did a sleep study in 2006 and was diagnosed with severe sleep apnea. My BMI then was 41 and is now 45 and I still have sleep apnea. My question is if I can't produce any medical records for the complete 5 years, because I didn't even go to a Dr. for a couple of the year, do you think they'll turn me down. I'd appreciate your feed back. Thanks for the informations. I am really excited about the opportunity to start a more healthy life and really don't want to have to shell out the $15,000 if I don't have to. Thanks.
