Did u have any problems getting approved?? Sent from my SM-N920R6 using BariatricPal mobile app

Omg.. so everything is submitted and today I called my insurance and they said it is being reviewed!! Im sooooo nervous!! Anyone else have United Healthcare?? Are they fast? Do they call or send a letter?? Ahh!! Sent from my SM-N920R6 using BariatricPal mobile app

How much weight did everyone lose during the preop diet?? I just finished all my appointments and now just waiting to hear on insurance!!

Just curious...how much weight did everyone lose during the 2 week liquid diet?

I have my last appointment on my checklist next thursday! Its psych testing. Does anyone know what this all involves?? If all goes well, they will submit my paperwork to insurance!!! Fingers crossed!!

So awesome!!!!!

They just told me this morning that its billed to insurance and then ill get a bill. Im nervous to believe them tho lol. I think ill make sure I have the deductible amount ready just in case! Thank u!! Im sooo excited and nervous! I just want to know if im approved or not!! Lol

If surgery is covered by insurance do they make you pay your entire deductible beforehand?? Or is that billed after? I know, weird question but Im not sure!

They told me it had to be a total of 6 appointments where my weight was discussed within the last 2 years.. its interesting how every policy is different!

Awesome! Did u have other conditions besides a BMI over 40?? And what did they all require for nutrition appts etc etc??
