sheree212 21 Posted January 11, 2013 Hello I am wanting to see if there's anyone here who has went to a psychological doctor that accepts Blue Cross and Blue Shield federal in the Atlanta area for the vertical sleeve gastrectomy? If so can you provide me with their names I'm currently having a hard time finding someone? Thank you Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NDN_RN 527 Posted January 11, 2013 Federal BCBS should pay any licensed therapist that is part of their PPO. I actually paid only 25 dollars for the hour + eval. i have BCBS federal Basic.

chocolate_macchiato 23 Posted January 11, 2013 Call BCBS (ask blue) and they will email you a list of qualified providers in your area or whatever are you provide to the rep....We pay them enough in premium, put them to work for you. 1 sheree212 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
