Approval Through Optimum Health



Recommended Posts

Hey y'all, I have UHC choice plus, but my plan requires that I go through Optimum Health for approval. I was just wondering if anyone else has experience dealing with them? They sent me a lot of different forms and requirements, all seem to be pretty much in line with what my surgeon had me do - letter of medical necessity from my md, psych eval, etc.

I'm hoping someone who dealt with them can advise me on what exactly they're looking for as far as the medically supervised diet. The form says I can use weight watchers and submit proof of participation, but also have to see my doctor at least twice during. The form for my doctor to fill out just has lines for them to date, put down my weight and sign. Is that all that I have to submit, in addition to proof of weight watchers participation?

Also, does anyone have experience using weight watchers for their supervised diet? What all did you have to submit as proof?
