nickie456 0 Posted September 2, 2005 I am a self pay, can't help you with the insurance. But I would suggest you go to the Insurance form and ask the same question. Good luck to you Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gordonfamily3 0 Posted September 7, 2005 Wish I could answer your question but I want to welcome you. I did have to fill out a diet history for my surgeon who sent mine in with my packet for approval however I have UHC and I don't know really what they require. Good Luck...hope you find your answers.
