  13. My surgery is on Tuesday March 29 I have to fly in on Monday for blood work and all that with dr Ramos Kelly I started myself on my liquid diet yesterday and I cheated with string cheese so today is the real game no place for errors. For my protein I'm going make jello with protein mixed in bc I'm on clear liquids. I wish you all good recoveries and successful diets.

  22. I'm going with Kelly.. March 28. Deposit of $520 PayPal fee included. $3150 cashiers check for dr Kelly. $1000 cash for clinic. I received a VERY lengthy email with payment instructions, diet plan, post op expectations...EVERYTHING. There is a extra percentage for using a card.

  24. March 28! Dr. Ramos Kelly
  25. Did CHAMPVA pay Any part for the sleeve? Most post I've read say that they don't cover it. A couple say that they don't do pre approval only accept or deny a bill.
  26. Insurance will find any reason to not pay. People have been denied because of .01 some calculators say that 210 is 40 for my height some 215. I'm just now in the stages of choosing a doctor and I'm with CHAMPVA.
  27. I've searched around and I've noticed that some of these bmi charts and calculators vary a little bit. I'm 5'1 "210" some calculators say that I'm 39.99 others 40. Is there anywhere I can find THE bmi chart that doctors or insurance companies use.
  28. Thanks. My plan hasn't started yet but they told me it was covered. The rep didn't sound too sure I may just need to cancel my plan. It's hard finding someone to cover bariatric in Alabama
  29. I'm in Alabama and I have uhc. I got the booklet and it say bariatric surgery is not covered. On exclusion list. Is this point blank or do I just need a doctors referral?
