Nana1222 159 Posted August 25, 2016 I have BC/BS and wondering how soon should I apply for this? I'm in beginning stages thinking Jan I'll have surgery. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Christinamo7 4,042 Posted August 25, 2016 I applied when I was approved - ask your bariatric team, they process this paperwork all the time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Monet08 63 Posted August 25, 2016 Once I was approved I applied. They usually want you to do it 30 days prior to your surgery but depending on your office and scheduling that may not be best. Sent from my iPhone Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
