    My bmi is 37.9 I had my first appointment January 30th I had high blood pressure in the past and was on medication for it for 6 years got in under control so no longer being treated for it I'm waiting on an appointment for my sleep apnea test. I'm hoping my insurance will cover this it requires 6 months of supervised visits with the nutritionist.. Keeping my fingers crossed!

  8. Low BMI insurance ?

    Is there anyone on here that has a low BMI from pa? I have GPH family insurance I also have a low BMI and I'm not sure if my insurance going to approve me I have history of high blood pressure but do not have high blood pressure right at this time. waiting on an appointment to get a sleep apnea test done. And I have to do 6 months supervise with the dietitian. I was just wondering if anyone on here can relate and can say what my odds of approval are?

    I just found out today about the 6 month's of supervised program. I called the Insurance Company and asked a lot of questions! Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G920A using the BariatricPal App

    Hi my name is Shawna I'm meeting with the GI nutritionist January 30th. looking to get the gastric sleeve done. I'm from Wilkes-Barre pa and was hoping someone in that area had it done and had Geisinger insurance and can let me know what to expect. Is there a long wait time? Thank you.
