ScotchTape got a reaction from stacy71 in United Health Care Insurance
Hi all.
Just want to give my experience with the UHC process. I made the decision to go this route in may of 2017. I made the call to UHC who set me up with Optum Health which is part of the bariatric sub division. I was simply required to complete 6 months of guided weight loss which I did through the Center of Excellence facility that I chose as everything was on site there. I completed this process in December. The facility tried to submit my info to optum only to find out my case had been closed. Finding this odd I called them, got scheduled to a call with a case worker on February 8th. Had the call and at that point the case was ready for review with optum for the "letter of medical necessity" However, I found out today that I have to do another call with a place called CBA which will take place on Feb. 15th. It is nice to see however that it seems like once it finally gets to UHC for approval they seem to have a pretty quick turnaround. Once that approval is given, surgery will be 2 weeks from that day!

My husband and I have lost over 100 lbs collectively, and I can confirm that, uhm, new depths have been reached *blush*.
