It doesn't matter what insurance company you have, really. It's about your policy. BCBS has a lot of policies and some employers choose to not include bariatrics. I have BCBS PPO TX and our policy (through the school district that my husband works for) has a very hard exclusion. I ended up paying for it myself as we knew going in they wouldn't approve it - and sure enough... not coverd. No way, no how.

Honestly, I wouldn't change a thing and would do it again even if I had to pay for it again :) Plus I didn't have to deal with the insurance headaches and stuff you guys did LOL

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
