Hey everyone,

So, I have BCBS of TX federal;

My requirements are: 3 month supervised diet, psychological evaluation, drug test, consultation with dietician and 2 yr medical history of being overweight/obese...

I have great benefits BUT my only issue is the 2 yr medical history....I just got health insurance this past nov and before getting health insurance the last time I went to the doctor was in July of 2009 after I had my daughter (ive been overweight since I was 7) now I'm just worried I won't get approved :(

Maybe the July 2009 appointment notes will work. After all, they show you have been overweight for more than the requisite two years. Here's hoping. I have BCBS federal also. You are lucky to have them.

I don't have a doctor either. I'm hoping my OB notes from pregnancies, and my foot surgery pre-op info, all from the last 6 years and all showing weights, will be sufficient. I'll find out soon. I should be submitting next week.

Thanks everyone! I'm hoping they accept it but I won't be submitting paper work until May, gotta finish this 3 month diet first.

@itsme- let me know how it goes for you. Good luck!
