This is my first post and hopefully I will be among the banded soon! My insurance covers lap band; I meet their criteria; I have meet all the requirements; I am confident with my surgeon's abilities. My concern is the level of attention to detail within his office. Yesterday I found out I was denied because the Lap Band Coordinator did not include all the reports. Also found out they never requested these documents when I finished my '6 months of physician directed weight loss' in October! I thought I was involved. I thought I was on top of things. I thought everything was on track. I didn't expect to be denied. And I certainly didn't expect to be told when they sent my documents for approval it was not even read before hand!! Lesson learned... I am sooooo all over this! She may have thrown away my 1st request but she will not throw away my health and happiness.
