Hi! Sweets! Happy, Happy Birthday! Hope you had a SUPER day! Thanks for writing! I still haven't seen a change on Triwest. It still says Pending Review. I'm hoping it'll say Approved one day soon! The house we built is here. Hubby has two years left for retirement and we plan on sticking around here. Thirty-five pounds is awesome! I hope that I'll be as successful! Thanks again for keeping in touch! Happy Birthday!

So, I just returned from a fun four-day weekend in Vegas! I lost but had a blast with DH. I hadn't been online until this morning and saw that Tricare Prime has denied my approval. :biggrin: I can't believe how upset I am. I have a 35.6 BMI and have asthma and PCOS. I did a sleep study a week ago but those results haven't come through. My question and I'm hoping for some help is . . . has anyone appealed? Any pointers on how to get APPROVED? All help is greatly appreciated. Sad day for me. Thanks so much! Just me, Brenda B.

Hi! Sorry I haven't been around. I've been super busy at work plus we have tons of packing to get down. We close on our new house on the 21st. Appeal is still under Pending Review. Hopefully I'll get word soon! I see you are doing great with the band. How was your first fill? Be honest! Thanks for your support!

Tricare Prime has denied me
AZArmyWife36 replied to AZArmyWife36's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Hi! I went ahead and did my appeal on my PCOS and Asthma. I talked about my childhood and having to grow up being overweight. I also included some editorials on why bariatric surgery is helpful in PCOS and Asthma. Also, talked about my parents and their ailments. I checked Triwest and it shows Pending Review. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that it will be approved. If you like I can email you some appeal letters that were sent to me. Just let me know. Best of luck! -

Hi! I'm so sorry they denied you. I immediately called in and found out that customer service could not give me the answer. I had to wait for the letter in the mail. I did send my appeal last week and as of now have not had any response. I'm keeping my fingers crossed. Make sure to appeal it. If mine does go through this time I'll let you know. Good Luck! -
Wow! Look at ya! You look GREAT!!! Keep it up! -
Hi, Jenn! How ya doing? I'm up late catching up on some blogs. Just wanted to stop by and say hello! Hope you are doing GREAT! Keep in touch!

AZArmyWife36 replied to seriousaboutit's topic in Insurance & Financing
Hi! I was denied by Tricare as well. I'm not sure on what I really need to do for the appeal. Did you write a letter yourself or did your PCM provide you with one? I'm not 100 overweight but I do have asthma, PCOS and high blood pressure. Though I'm not being treated for the high blood pressure. Any information is greatly appreciated! Thanks so much! Brenda -
Hi, Jenn! How ya doing? I'm okay. Just a bit bummed out. Found out that I don't have sleep apnea. So, I don't really have anything to use for my appeal. Talk about being down in the dumps. Anyhooo!! I see you've lost 22 lbs so far. That is sooo AWESOME! Keep it up! Have a great week!

Hi! Sweets! How ya feeling? I'm so mad and a bit on the sad side. Tricare denied my approval today. I called in and they didn't have a reason as of yet. Looks like I'll be having to do some work for the appeal. My sleep study results aren't even back and that might help if I have sleep apnea. Oh well! What to do??!! Right? I guess I should just SUCK IT UP! Ha! Have a great week! :smile:
