    I called right before insurance closed on Friday I called and found out I'd been approved. How long after did you get scheduled for surgery? Anyone from Texas using/used Dr. Kim bariatric institute?

    I ended up getting gastric sleeve and due to reflux less than 6 months later I was revised to gastric bypass. I went with Dr. Nick Nicholson at Nicholson Clinic. Highly recommend him. He’s an amazing surgeon. @dennise68 mine was all about my insurance requirements. I had BMI of 40 and I had high cholesterol as well. I’d call insurance and find out if it’s covered and what are the requirements for approval.

    Waiting

    I finished all the requirements and they submitted it for approval late Tuesday afternoon. I called insurance yesterday and they have received it. One person said I can call Monday and they'd know something. Another one said call Thursday and they'd have an answer. I have BCBSTX PPO so I wonder which one it'll really take. Anyone else have any experience with this insurance?
