  1. I almost have a bmi of 70 and they denied me. Because it wasn't "necessary", even though I have HBP. Go figure, i appealed it and the insurance company approved it after a few months. Surgery is tomorrow morning
  2. cigna also declined me. my bmi is 68! 68! and they said it wasn't medically necessary for me to get banded. Needless to say I appealed it through my hospital and they overturned it about 3 months later. Getting banded tomorrow
