  1. Does anyone know what the pre-op testing entails? Just blood work? And how far in advance is it usually done? Thanks
  2. Wow, that's great!! Next week will 2 weeks. Trying to be patient!
  3. Thanks!! Two weeks doesn't seem too long. Mine was submitted last week.... I'm sure the night in the hospital will be much needed.
  4. Has anyone had experience with BCBS Michigan- how long for a response after submission for pre- auth?

  8. Hello, I just finished my 6 month visits. We have BCBS Michigan. My dr office submitted my paperwork last week. I just noticed (basic online Bcbs Michigan Google Search) that they also require proof of 12 months of failed dieting NOT documented by surgeon. This wasn't the case when I started the process. Anyone else experienced this?
