Have you looked to see what the medical policy guidelines are? I have Carefirst BCBS of maryland and they have this wierd requirement of 50 and over BMI. They denied me, but I have appealed and hopefully I will be getting my approval soon. Good luck to you!

Good luck! This is a stressful time. Reading your insurance guidelines for surgery may ease you nerves.
