Humana Insurance and plastic surgery

[CaramelDiva1922 1]

Anyone live or know someone who lives in the Ky/In area with HUmana healt insurance to have them pay for your surgery. I am a teacher in Ky, and have board health insurance which is unfortunately Humana. Want to get them to pay to get rid of this tire. It has been hot as hell here, and the tire has defintely been burning rubber, and sweating. Any information would help.

I am in KY also, I know of a teacher that recently got Humana to pay for a under belly lift, not sure what it is called, she just had her dr. presrbe her rash cream and told the insurance she was getting bad rashes under the sagging skin and they paid.

How hard was it for you to get approval for your lapband?

Oh I was banded in March 05. When we had wonderful United Health Insurance. Then it took me less than 2 weeks to get approved. All that I had to do then was be over 100lb overweight, have a bmi over 35, and have several co morbidities. I had high blood pressure, high chlesterol, asthmas, seizures, and sarcodosis to just name a few. At the time of surgery I had been taking predinisone for over 10 yrs, and now I no longer take any medication at all. Now that we have Humana they make you do a 6 months doctor guide diet, see a shrink, and other test that I didn't have to do.
