Re-Sleeved, anyone?
I read on another site someone had to be re sleeved as their stomach was left larger than a banana size And a 3rd site where the pouch was stretched I didn't think this was a good idea

Columbia NY Presbyterian Doctor - Bessler
That's exactly what I liked about him too I originally wanted a lap band and saw Schrope. She recommended sleeve due to complications and such Then I found out she was out of network for my plan. And the office put me with bessler. He was very straightforward and to the point and why didn't I want rny. He was also against the lap band unless I felt completely certain that was what I wanted. So sleeping it is with bessler. Now if they'd ever give me a date .......;

Has anybody gained any weight during their insurance required weight management?
I wouldn't worry about it. I read the policy and didn't see that it required a weight loss

I Broke My Nose!
I had rhino and septoplasty few years back. Breathing thru mouth, no taste to anything, generally felt like I had a head stuffed full of cotton And then 3 day po - I sneezed I thought my brain came outta my head. Taking the packing out of my nose was no laughing matter either I think the worst part was going out and having people look at me like I was an abused wife or something. And I looked that way for about a month

Breast Reduction denied by insurance
Call them and ask for the written medical policy. It will state what exactly you need to be approved

When to go back to work?
If everything goes well (positive thoughts) I expect to be off 2 weeks at most. I can work from home for as long as I need to after that.

You know not to be negative but you have one life. And Elizabeth Taylor had a great life and 8? Husbands

Hair loss... Can you relieve my concern
Madame reverie that's the perfect visual description and exactly what I was afraid of. Eek! Thank you all. Up the Iron it is. Just got approved today and so begins the journey

Paying out of pocket cost.
One doesn't have to do with the other. If your balances are due to the doc and to the hospital work out a payment plan you can afford.
-
Desuctible and Other Payments
I think you shouldn't worry about it. The hospital may send a claim first, it may be the doc, or even the anesthesia. I think you should do what you need to do to manage your care. Call your carrier to confirm if you have a deductible and a coinsurance (max out of pocket) or if you have both. Many docs and hospitals are perfectly comfortable giving you payment plans for those

Another box checked
Omg you must be reading my mind. I haven't shred it yet but I have stopped buying since December and working on payoff. Can wait to close it!

Hair loss... Can you relieve my concern
So I keep reading about the hair loss. Ok. I'm good I get it. But can you be a little more specific ? Like what am I dealing with? Clumps Patches of missing follicles Full on baldness Should i consider a wig I travel for work - won't be doing that for a month post op - but if I lose hair it'll be more noticeable than my weight loss. Help? Allay my fears please Thanks!

Has anyone eating food before they were supposed to? Or drink before or after eating? I have. Now, I am getting nervous
I think you'll feel better at purée stage. Just hang in there little longer. Can you do Jello yogurt, etc?

Will some insurance cover plastics?
There is a difference between reconstruction and elective cosmetic surgery

$600 Bariatric Program Fee
I'd like to ask all of you willing to pay a fee .... Why? I would NEVER see a doc and pay a fee. Don't care how good he says he is. I choose a doc by going to NY Presbyterian hospital and finding surgeons associated/employed there. Then I found he did surgery at a local NJ hospital and the morbidly rates in NJ are better My friends recommended a place in Edison nj but they are run like a mill. All bariatrics and almost felt like they pushed the surgery too much. My doc doesn't care if you do the surgery or which one. Make the right decision provides info and nutrition. No fees.

Cigna OAP require 3 or 6 month for approval
I called Cigna and spoke to them. The nurse reviewed reconsideration and notes were everything present but 4 visits in 78 days won't meet requirement. She said it now sits with the medical director for up to another 5 business days for final reive and approve/deny. Ridiculous Am calling doc in am and scheduling an appt before end of day. Get that one in there and submit that really quick!

Administrative Fees?
What did you get for this extra $1000? It's not like they can control an insurance approval. So what do they do for that money?

Shut the Front door
Congrats!

Administrative Fees?
Sounds like you are paying for services that are their job. In other words everyone else gets for free Call your insurance
