Hello. I have BCBS of michigian & I can tell you now.. they are slow! they kept telling me they have 30 days to decide approval but it took them 45 days!!! :) I called at least 2 times a week just to let them know how woresome i can be:tongue: then i got the bariatric coordinater to call & it still took them another week! I finally just gave up waiting, prayed about it & took it to the alter & then come that monday, i got a phone call. I was approved!:thumbup: I was so happy i did a little dance!! So all i can say is, hang in there and keep calling them being woresome:sneaky: Good luck!!!

Hi! I have BCBS of Michigan Trelleborg Corporation. My info was submitted on June 27, 2008 and I've been calling about twice a week. I spoke with the ins. co. this past week and they told me that they do not require pre-authorization or pre- certification(PRE-APPROVAL). They (the ins. co.) said that my doctor would receive a letter stating the criteria but not an approval letter. She said that would be determined after the ins claim is filed. I'm so :tt2:. I am also very:angry:.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
