Bcbs Insurance

[iris26 64]

I'm getting all my paperwork ready to submit to the insurance but I'm scare that I will not qualify. I'm 5' 7" and weight 245. I have lost 30 pounds in the last year but I gain all of it back plus more after I stopped taking diet pills. I having high blood pressure, and high cholesterol. My insurance requires bmi of > 35 with relative illness or > 40 with documentation of weight loss attempts. I have tries many diets but how do I show proof?

I am 5'6 weight 216. I have NC BCBS. My doctor submitted my paper work tuesday. I am waiting patiently for an answer. I have faith and believe I will be approved. I have the same medical issues as you plus GERD. I just told the doctor what diets over the years I had tried and he wrote it down. I did not have to show proof of what diets.They required two years proof from doctor my weights. Hower, 2010 I never went to the doctor so I had to send them a picture of me in 2010.So hopefully soon we both will be on the losers bench. Believe!!!! and it will happen.

I have BCBS AL. On my first surgeons visit I had to give him a list of all the diets I had tried over the years like weight watchers, Atkins, and diet pills I used. I also had to send documentation of my height and weight from 2009, 2010, and 2011 as well as the seven doctors visits for this year. i have one doctors visit left but the surgical coordinator says she can get an approval online and she can tell that I won't get denied. however, my BMI is 51 and i have 2 comorbidities.
