I am actually considering this as I have a coworker who needs it and cannot afford it. I think it's a travesty it isn't covered.

Thanks all! That's what I figured. I am planning to self-pay but my husband wants me to try to appeal first. But as one said, I can't really appeal as it wasn't a specific denial.

My BCBS is through the hospital I work for. The hospital has opted not to pay for bariatric surgery. My question is, who do I appeal to? If I have my doctors send letters, what department or job title do they send it to? The insurance company won't help because they say it is my employers choice. Any suggestions appreciated.
