Hi Kelly here, I'm on day 10 of my Dr's required 2 weeks all liqued pre-op diet... I have been very good about sticking to only what is allowed, except last night I went out to Olive Garden and had a 2 Bowls of Tuscanno soup. Other then that I have been strict. Surgery is on Mondaythe 12th, wohoooo Kelly :-)

I have United Healthcare HRA Plus, thru GAP INC. and I was approved in 1 day. We submitted letter from surgeon, PCP, He stated I have High Blood Pressure and a few other Co- Mobitities. The Nutricionist, The Physc Evaluation. Also and I had to write a letter regarding my weight loss efforts for the past 5 years. I did my letter for 20 years actually. with weights for years and what I did to lose pounds.. with alot of emphisis on the past 5-7 years..... And they approved it in 1 day. My Dr was like WOW Amazing, So as of right now I am scheduled for surgery on Nov. 12th...:whoo: Kelly

My surgeon charges $3500.00 up front from me , then turns around and bills out of network to the insurance and they hopefully send me something back, they say they pay 60% out of network billed.... Surgeon says if he bills in network he only ends up getting 700 back from them....... Kelly
