allyb15 got a reaction from SarcasticJopanda in October Bypass
I love reading you guys posts! When I get to worrying about the particulars of surgery, I just do a search and find what you all experienced/experiencing... which is a great help. My Bypass surgery date is Oct 15th... my doctor's nurse told me I only have to do 7 day liquid diet, but i think i may try to start a little early.. I go to my Pre-Op testing and Dietician class on Oct 2nd then will see my surgeon on Oct 3rd...
Best of luck to all of you! [emoji847]

I have paid my Surgeon $790(before my first appt with him) and the hospital called and said I would have to pay them $1300, 10 days before surgery... my date is October 15th. The payments will satisfy my Out-Of-Pocket(OOP) expense with my insurance for the year. Once OOP is met, insurance will pay 100% of my medical expenses... for the remainder of this year

Does anyone know why insurance (UMR) requires a 6 month supervised diet plan? I'm just curious.... What if I lose weight during that 6 months, will I run the risk of being denied by the insurance because I no longer have the required BMI? I have a long history of losing weight on diets, but only gain it all back (plus some).

Got'cha! I just started the process, my surgeon's office will be calling me this week with a referral for a nutritionist. I have actually been under a supervised weight loss diet/plan for over a year with Contrave medicine with my PCP, but I only had to visit once every 6 weeks(initially), then once every 3 months... not sure if the insurance will accept that, but we will see!
I wish you much luck during your process!
