Getting through the dreaded insurance approval



Recommended Posts

I bought something online that helps get you through the insurance approval and also helps you keep track of who you spoke to and when, etc. If you want a copy sent to your e-mail, post it and I'd be happy to send it to you. I hate for anyone to have to pay $50 for it, when I bought it and can share the information!!!

it helped me out quite a bit. plus I got approved on the first attempt. just wanted to offer support to those who need it. I won't lie, I probably did get jipped out of money, but it sounded good, and it did help.

I was denied by my insurance last month and have been formulating my appeal letter. I'd love to have a copy, if you can send it to me at kimrzidy@gmail.com.

Thanks!

Yes. Insurance denied me, so the ladies at my surgeons office suggested I contact this advocacy group. The lawyer who started it was Walter Lindstrom. The website is obesitylaw.com. They filed my two appeals for me, I was approved on my 2nd appeal. Best part for me is Allergan paid for it (they told me this from the beginning when I signed the papers that I wanted them to represent me)

Thanks, I went to their website yesterday and submitted my data. How long did it take before they responded to you?

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
