soready2011 0 Posted June 16, 2011 I had my first office visit on 6/13/2011. The center I am attending is rated a center of excellence. So, I have at least 6 or 7 (sleep test, upper gi, psych (2 visits), exercise wellness, support group, blood work) different items on my list to complete before they even submit my papers to my insurance company. I am saying this because, if I do all of these things and not get approved I will highly disappointed. I have no other illnesses, my BMI is just high. (45) Thoughts please?

losinandlovin 2 Posted June 16, 2011 More and more people are being approved. I think the Insurance Companies are seeting the value to the surgery and unlike hte Gastric Bypass, it has less complications. It will be worth it. If you do not follow the required steps you will always wonder what if. All some insurenace companies require is 45 BMI. You can only try! Best of luck!
