  1. Excuse me if I'm being repetitive, but its really bugging me ! Again, as my annoying self has posted in 1392846 posts, I have Horizon NJ health (Plan A, family care) I plan on going to Dr.Neff. However, my insurance says there is a 12 month nutritional program required, but others have told me (including the insurance specialist with Dr.Neff) that this is not the case and they have never heard of this. I just need some definitive answers, from others who have this insurance RECENTLY, on if there is or isn't any type of x amount of months nutritional program required. I could have all my tests done by the end of March. Can someone please give me their experience with this insurance from New Jersey who has used Dr. Neff ? It would be so greatly appreciated. Im going crazy !
  2. My insurance doesn't cover them ( jerks ) and can't find one under 600 dollars ! Any help? I'm central NJ
  3. Has anyone gotten the sleeve through this insurance RECENTLY? Over the phone, I was told a 12 month nutritional program but I've searched a million forums on here, and no one was required to do that ! Also, I haven't been insured for 7+ years, so no other doctors have my weight history /: TYIA !

  5. Thank you ! I hope my wait is as short as yours
  6. I am central NJ , monmouth county. I'm trying to find a closer surgeon . I meet with my PCP on Monday and I will go from there . I'm so excited. I hope your healing process gets better with minimal pain. Especially since your a mommy !
  7. Thank you for the response ! How are you post op ?
  8. Called my insurance ( after reading a BUNCH of forums on here ) and of course she read the manual to me like a zombie. I was told I had to complete a 12 month nutrional program . I have read in these forums that is not the case. All I have to do is go to my PCP, get a referral, medical clearance, psych eval, blood work, see a nutritionist, meet my dr/surgeon, process my claim and schedule a surgery date. What was your experience ? Also, she told me all surgeons are south jersey ( I'm central) any advice, tips, anything is helpful ! Thank you !
