United Healthcare: BRS Program?



Recommended Posts

Have I been approved?

Today I called to see my status on approval or not.

I was told that I needed to be enrolled in the BRS program, in which I am, and given a number for my bariatric program to call.

When asked what this means, I was told that I will be able to get a date and stuff if and when she calls this number... (or something along those lines?)

I'm confused...

Does this mean I'm approved? Or is it yet another hoop for me to jump thorough... has anybody been through this? Somebody tell me something!!!

ETA: I've already completed everything else. I'm just waiting for complete approval. I know they're supposed to help with the process but I am LITERALLY at the very last step and just want my date...

It is another hoop. Good news is that it was a quick call with a nurse. But they need to schedule it. It took a few days to get it scheduled.

I already had the meeting scheduled. I had it done the day of. Does that mean approval?

Call your dr. They will tell you if you are approved.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
