    What did you submit?

    Hi everyone, I am new here and am proceeding with the process for approval from my health insurance. I am at BMI 34 and typically the minimum is 35. I have been told that Anthem (ins) has approved BMI at 34...........I don't think the doctor would encourage pursuing if he didn't feel it would be approved. (?) Anyone have any related experieonce? thank youG
