  1. Hi, I'm currently waiting on my 2 year medical history inorder to send in for approval for the surgery. I have been waiting 3 months now for this to be completed by my family doctor. I'm a little worried because next year when my insurance renews, it will no longer cover bariatric procedures for people under the age of 21. I was wondering if anyone has Empire BC/BS in ohio, that got approved rather quickly. I was under the impression that it took a couple months. Any help or advice would be great. Thanks.
