So my last weigh in is on wednesday.. the first and second months I stayed the same the third month gained a lb. Fourth month lost 4 and fifth month gained 4 back. I'm wondering how much will this affect my approval... I have Wellcare of GA if anyone has any insight I'm open to anything... thank you

I had my PCP appt. yesterday. He basically asked me why I wanted to get the surgery and stuff. Some medical questions and took blood. Since I know my insurance (wellcare of ga) requires 6 months supervised diet I started the paperwork for weight watchers for 6 month2. I meet with the Bariatric Center next Friday. I am so ready to hear more and hopefully it's all good news!!!!! I wish I could get it jow! But I guess it's a good thing since I don't have the $ 700 I need for it lol

Oops my mistake. I got covered for benefits through wellcare. Thank you for clarifying for me lol

I got approved by Wellcare of GA! I'm having my surgery at gwinnett medical hospital in duluth, GA. The lady I spoke with said that I would probably have $730-$750 out of pocket costs for the nutrition visit, psychological exam, & the 2 week pre-op liquid diet and pills. Is there any way I can go to my own nutritionist and psychologist to that takes my insurance that way I dnt have to pay for it. Or can I go to the health department for a nutritionist visit? Anyone experience the sleeve surgery with Wellcare of GA? TIA

Hi everyone! This is my first post. Currently I applied for GA Medicaid and got approved. I submitted my paperwork for Wellcare of GA and now I'm just waiting for card so I can go through and start whatever I need to do with the surgeons office. I would love to hear from someone who went through Wellcare of GA for the Sleeve surgery. I know I am just starting my but I don't know the processes and what Wellcare will require me to do so hearing from someones experience would be great! I'm 21 with a BMI of 46.3 I appreciate any feedback, thank you in advance!
