  1. They are having me do a lot more then what a ppo person would need to do, open enrollment is November 1st so I'm going to switch to ppo so I don't have to go through till next May and also will cut down on what I need to get it done, it is really just crazy how much they want from you I mean come on.
  2. So my main dr controls the length of the supervised diet?

Hi I'm currently in process of supervised diet and they been playing games with saying it is up to my surgeon how long it would be then the diet supervised girl is like you have 12 months of this when I just got done doing a year of calorie counting by myself, I pay 300 a month for this insurance just for the wls and I called bcbs and they act clueless to it all even talking to the bariatic people of bcbs I told the girl at the Kane a Center in Hoffman estates that it was bs when I just got off from a over a year of trying myself to just be told oh well do it again for another year..

  5. Hi I have Blue Precision HMO I chose this because this was only plan i could some what afford with my part time income. And it said they covered bariatric surgery. Then the insurance person at the place I will be getting the surgery done called me on Friday and told me there is an exclusion and it not covered.... I know it is a HMO i know I need to go through my PCP first but why is it saying it's not covered when i went through the exclusion packet part and it does not say anything about it. And right before I bought the insurance the reps said it is covered on my insurance, this was only reason I bought the insurance and paying a whole paycheck for it... idk any info or insight would be nice. I have 8 days to opp out of this insurance if i don't like it so kinda running on time.
