BCBS does cover it... I have it but like slim said there are certian criteria you have to meet and some polices have you do a 6 month diet(with a dietian) then psych eval.

Also I took the 6 month supervised diet as a way to adjust and get ready for life after the sleeve... It will be a BIG change to your system... Atleast food intake wise

I'm So Fearful Of Surgery / Anasthesia!
DcMak72 replied to Felicity549's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Valid fear and like most have stated just stay positive in all aspects of your life. "WE" have to all go through the many stages of WLS... Put to sleep is just one. -

Ok went for my Psych Evaluation this morning.... Ok from what I gather thhey just want to make sure your stable... mentally. I talked to my psychologist for about 35 min. Then took a (basically) True or False test. With 250 questions!!!! I think they only ha about 10 questions they asked 25 different ways. But all in all wasn't that bad at all. Now I just have to wait on the results to be sent back to my Doc.
