MissBS 3 Posted August 24, 2008 Hi. I am in Albuquerque too. Your questions have probably been answered but I too have Blue Cross/Blue Shield. They would've covered my surgery but boy do they make you do a lot. I understand why they do.... but...... Anyway.... I am lucky enough to have family who is helping me pay for my procedure. I am going to Houston. I would love to hear how you are doing!!!! Good luck!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
abq--62 0 Posted August 24, 2008 blue cross gives very evasive answers, finally after several calls and myinvestigation on their website, i must have a doctor's supervised diet for 6 month and some other medicl history. so I am waiting. best regards abq$$62 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MissBS 3 Posted August 24, 2008 I hate the insurance world. I think they make it so hard that they hope people will just say "forget it". Makes me mad and sad. They don't take care of people the way I think they should. Let me know how it goes and good luck to you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
