Approved united health care choice plus



Recommended Posts

Hi everyone. I called my insurance today and found out I was approved. I have United Healthcare, I did not have to do the 6 month supervised diet. I was so worried about that. They approved within 48 hours. The surgery is scheduled for Oct 7. I'm scared, nervous, worried and excited.

Wow I have United health Care too , and I had to meet with the dietitian and diet for a year, they told me that is part of their requirements, I live in Michigan, but since I've started I now have Medicare as well it is my Primary Insurance now, and United Health Care is my Secondary insurance. I wonder why I had to do that for a full year and you didn't. anyway I finished with that in October, now they are doing a referral to my insurance company so I can go to the psych eval, then hopefully meet with a surgeon upon being given the OK from the psych Dr. then get a date set, I will be one happy camper when I get a date and I hope very very very soon !!! :D

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
