United healthcare weight loss form



Recommended Posts

I was told I needed weights recorded from anytime in the last 5 years from any doctor. I filled the form out myself and faxed it back. Now they're saying the form needs to be signed and more recent. Any tips on how to get this form filled out ? I don't regularly see my PCP but have seen my GYN a lot in the past 3 years.

My approval is waiting on this only.

It sounds like you need to have your GYN and/or your PCP fill out the form.

So I sorted this out. Had to print multiple forms and deliver them to my different doctors. I have a requirement of 6 weights to be logged. 3 came in so 3 more to go. I explained to my PCP that I wish to have this done. She was supportive so I'll continue to see her. Looking then to have my last requirements met by end of July. Yay!

Interesting follow-up. I was allowed to use the nutritionalist consultation as a weighin but during this time of gathering the weights, one of my earlier one expired - outside Insurances 2 year ( previously told it was 5) time span. Crazy. I'm trying to see if they will take that earlier one as it qualified when we submitted the paperwork.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?
