Highmark BCBS - weight history



Recommended Posts

Hi all,

As I'm reading posts, I realize that some insurance requires a BMI 40+ for 2+years. I didn't see that on the highmark policy explicitly. I don't have diagnosed comorbidities, and I was somewhere between 35-40bmi two years ago. (I have pcos, but I don't think that counts.)

Has anyone else with highmark been denied for their BMI history being too low?

Thanks!

I has Highmark BCBS at the time when I got sleeved - this insurance does not require a BMI history, so no need to be worried about it. If they required it, I wouldn't be able to have my surgery. ( I did not have any records). Good luck !

Thanks guys! My PCP had to sign a form with three year weight history. Hopefully that not related.
