Unicare and Spivak

[RLittman 4]

Has anyone used Dr. Spivak with Unicare Insurance? So far the only testing that Unicare is requiring is a psych evaluation to determine fitness for the procedure. They also asked for medical notes from my pcp and any other information I feel is necessary to prove medical necessity. I thought I would send them pcp notes showing high cholesterol and borderline diabetes along with my orthopedic notes showing degenerative disc disease and arthiritis. Spivak has a form that you fill out to show all the diets you have tried, and when and how much weight you have lost/regained. I go to his seminar on May 12th.
