Hi, I had my surgery in April (self pay) and now my Mom is trying to, she is scheduled for 2-14-04 and has Federal Blue Cross and Blue Shield. I am wondering how you got pre approval. They keep telling me and my dr's office that they will not pre approve. Anyone have any info.

Copied from: Blue Cross® and Blue Shield® Service Benefit Plan http://www.fepblue.org 2007 Gastric restrictive procedures, gastric malabsorptive procedures, and combination restrictive and malabsorptive procedures to treat morbid obesity –a condition in which an individual has a Body Mass Index (BMI) of 40 or more, or an individual with a BMI of 35 or more with co-morbidities who has failed conservative treatment; eligible members must be age 18 or over. Benefits are also available for diagnostic studies and a psychological examination performed prior to the procedure to determine if the patient is a candidate for the procedure. Does this sound like they are going to pay for Lap Band after January 2007.

I went to meet some friends at a local club. I got there after they did and was standing at the bar getting my drink. Kinda looking around for them. I look up and see them and wave get my drink and go over. They were kinda laughing when I got there and I asked them what was so funny. My friend said well we looked at you and said is that Kristie her boyfriend said where, she said at the bar. He said where I don't see her. She said right there in the brown shirt. He said I don't think so. Thats when I turned around and waved at them. And they were like omg it is Kristie. They didn't even recognize me!!!!!!!!!!
