Ranger 0 Posted March 27, 2010 Just starting the process have been researching for over a year and decided with the help of my primary Dr. that this would be the best for me. I have met with the surgeon, been to the seminar. Told that my insurance only requires 3 things, a health screen from my primary Dr, a psych appt and a report from the dietician. I have complete everything so far but the report from the dietician. I have that scheduled in 2 weeks than the waiting begins...approval from my insurance. I talked with my insurance and they said they cover as long as it is medically necessary....so we will see, I have Blue Shield EPO in Central Valley, CA. My surgeon is Dr. Coirian, which I hear is a great surgeon. This is the beginning of my journey. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
