My insurance company denied me...

[Mona 0]

Well it's sad but true. BCBS of TN has denied me for the lap band. I'm definitely not giving up but I'm very discouraged right now.:cry There's not much left for me to do now...I've jumped through all the insurance hoops. I'm tired of jumping now...I've done my part and am still doin' my part. The denial letter was so uniform, cold and....:speechles . I tell myself that I just have to believe that God is gonna see me through all this. Please pray for me.:help:

Mona--so sorry you were denied....I was denied in TN by the same insurance!! They just don't want to pay anything...even though obesity has many more complications!!! VERY frustrating!! I ended up going self-pay. I'm praying the Lord providesa miracle in your finances!!!

God Bless,

Mona did they give you a reason? Are you going to appeal? ReneBean had BCBS of Ca and was denied several times and appealed to the state insurance board. She will share her appeal letters with you if you PM her.

Don't give up. M:)

Oh Mona I am so sorry!!!!

I was denied by Aetna and Cigna for two years - the Lord led me to a job that offered UHC, and even though we have only ever had our ins. under my husbands job, I JUMPED on my companies plan. They approved me within 24 hours. (once the &^%$# office girl at my doctors office submitted my paperwork)

Mona, you are in my thoughts and prayers. Keep fighting and keep being head strong about it. One thing about women. We always end up with what we want. Not always when we want(ed) it, but we get it! (it's that b!tchy gene in us!!!!) LOL

Hang in there and keep looking for your open options!!!
