No six month diet for me-just a nutrition appt, psych eval, two year weight history, and pre/post op counseling. My doc submitted to insurance and got approved in less than 24 hours! I have surgery on 7/18! Which state do you have Anthem through? Mine is WI.

When did you ask your doctor abbott weight loss surgery ?

I just found out out about this 3 weeks ago (with KAISER)

Now I have Blue Across :)) I'M SO HAPPY!!!!

I have to start the process with ANTHEM BLUE CROSS :))

I just wonder how long things will be .... I see my first PCP Aug 8. I'm excited to meet my new (first) doctor with ANTHEM :))

My approval came from Anthem of Cali. No 6 month is supervised diet for me. Just psych eval, nutrition consult, endoscopy, esophageal manometry and proof of last physical exam within the yr before they submitted to insurance.
