Keshajo1 61 Posted October 9, 2014 I am so excited, received my approval for Lap-Band Procedure in less than one week!!!! Recently changed employers, so I have brand new insurance. This is my first experience with BCBS TX. Submitted request on Oct. 3, 2014, pre-determination completed and approval received on Oct 8, 2014. I'm amazed! I'm going through True Results in Houston, TX. Started the process on Sept. 17 (which was my 38th Birthday). I won't lie, I stayed on top of everyone involved, making contact with at least one party everyday, by email or phone. (Probably got on there nerves, LOL) It worked. The patient liaison said that she has never seen anyone get approval so quickly. The process so far has been pretty simple. Was worried that I would get the run around from insurance company due to the fact that I've only had this policy since Sept. 3rd. Anyway next step is obtaining a surgery date. Yay Me!

TNL14 2 Posted October 25, 2014 Keshajo1: Which office are you doing everything out of in Houston? I am going next wednesday to do all of the labs and other requirements for submittal to my insurance BCBSTX also. When I went for my consult I didn't want to jump to a conclusion but immediately decided to go for it. Which surgeon did they tell you? They told me Dr. Rielly. Hoping I can get the ball rolling. Good Luck with everything! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
