TY

I did a search and there are old posts for it. Looks fairly cut and dry so tomorro0w I will call the lap doc and see where we are at with the gp rec letter and past weights stuff. I still need to do the pysch eval, so I will set that up.

ok so odd twist:

on the pre auth form it says "enrolled in preop and post op behavioral health, nutrition and medical management program"

So I called to see how long, 3-6 months. Anyway the pre auth dept said it was up to my bariatric surgeon to determine if I need to do it or not..... so why put it on the pre auth as if it was a criteria requirement? I talked to the doc and my bmi is high enough to skip it. plus they have a very thourgh program there. Scared to believe them, lol.

I have BCBS of Mass...I am still waiting for the dr's office to send over my paperwork to insurance. From all that I could find on the insurance also its very cut and dry. So let me know if you got approved and what you had to do.

Good Luck!!:thumbup:
