I am going in to my PCP next Monday and I am going to be requesting the referral for the bariatric program hoping to be accepted for it - I am leaning toward the sleeve but what are the criteria they go by - I am 245lbs - 5'6" and my BMI is at 39 - does anyone know what the BMI requirements are?

Each insurance, doctor and hospital have their own rules - and they are not all the same! My insurance does not cover bariatric, so my process took only a few months. Amazing what a little cash can do!
