  1. Are you covered by insurance? If so didn't they ask for certain requirements before approval. I heard in some cases where they required meeting with a nutritionist for at least a six month period before any approval.
  2. Hello eveyone. New to the site. I have the very first visit with the Lap Band doctor Aug 7th. My insurance company gave me the OK as far as coverage was concerned as long as certain criteria was met. I was just wondering how long after the initial visit with the LB doctor does the surgery happen providing all the requirements are met? I have read through a few of the cases where some people waited over a year. What is the norm? I have Highmark PPO Blue for insurance. Thanks for the input
