Losing weight AFTER insurance approval

[breprih 96]

Does anyone know if losing weight after insurance approval will cause any problems with surgery coverage?

I was losing and then found out at my consultation that my BMI was too low so it's where it needs to be now but I see the surgeon tomorrow and they'll use that weight to submit to insurance. However, if approved I want to start losing before surgery but I don't want to mess things up.

Once you are approved, you are approved. I have never heard of anyone getting rejected once insurance gave the okay to schedule surgery.

I’m wondering about the same thing. My BMI is currently 39 and I was told I have to go on a 4-month diet before surgery. I’m concerned that my BMI will be too low for surgery. I wonder what the cut off is?
