Bcbs Of Wyoming Insurance Questions



Recommended Posts

Hello! I am working on getting medical records submitted to my surgeon's office for review. Once received they will let me know what my chances are of getting approved then the pre-op testing will be scheduled. My concern (fear) is the requirement of my insurance company. I meet most of the requirements for approval, however, I've been told that BCBS of WY is very strict as they also require 5 years of medical supervised weight loss. Is this unheard of?!? I've been dieting since I was 8 years old so it's what I'he known. I never asked a doctor for permission each time I went on a diet. Sometimes the insurance companies will accept records from companies such as Weight Watchers. I've followed this program many times however only from experience and not through a membership. I'm worried about my chances with such a strict requirement of 5 years. What are your thoughts or experiences?

All states are different, I have BCBS of NJ and it a good plan, as long as u have all your paper work you should be fine,,what would help if you've done weight watcher or jenny Craig. You can also call the insurance and ask for the guide lines of the procedure and they will mail it to you. I did and state what you need to have etc.
