BCBS AL (LGHIP)

[heatherfit4life2b 1]

Anyone out there on the local government Health Insurance Plan with BCBS of AL? I had my 1st appt with the surgeon's office on 1/15/15. I was told that the 6 month diet was waived with my BMI being 44. I have to pay 1,057.00 (50% of copay) to surgeon. From what I understand, I am waiting on medical records to be submitted from my PCP and I need to fill out a 5 yr diet history. After that, I don't know...Just wondering if anyone else has been through the whole process with the same type of insurance.

How long did it take you to get approved? I have the exact same insurance plan as you and just had my php submit my three year weight history last week to my surgeons office to Submit to bcbs. It's hard to find anyone on the forums with BCBSAL local government plan.
