INSURANCE JUST CALLED - I'M APPROVED!!!!!



Recommended Posts

LOL- I tried to do this over a year ago and my company changed insurances and the new insurance did not cover bariatric surgery. Now I'm back at it with BCBS that will cover at 100%!!!!!!!

This time around, I told myself that I wasn't messing around!! I called my insurance first and asked what I needed for approval. I called my surgeon on Thursday and they got me an appointment for the following Monday. After that I went ahead and started scheduling all appointments. Luckily, everyone had availability this week. My surgeon's staff was impressed with me.... but I'm so ready!!

I'm currently at 280 and I have a lot to lose. I'm excited to start a new chapter. I'd love to keep in touch- a buddy definitely helps!!

Hi! Congratulations! I am also on BCBS and they were wonderful! Approved my surgery in less than 2 weeks. Banded 5/10/2011 and very excited!
