  1. Hi All, I have a question, I have GHI-CBP and BCBS. I in the 4th month of a supervised diet to be done in Sept and paperwork put in. I was denied the first time by GHI because my pcp who referred me did not write a decent letter about my weight loss attempts for 6 months. 6 months is a requirement for them. Anyway when GHI approves (hoping) do I need to notify BCBS for preauthorization for the hospital stay? I am not sure and the insurance companies make it very confusing to figure it out. I am trying to get it all in order so there will be no future problems. Thanks for the help. Joy
  2. Hello Group, I am not yet banded I am going through a 6 month medically supervised nutritionist visits. I am on my third month. My surgeon will be putting in my paperwork in September :clap2: . I should hopefully be approved. I was denied the 1st time which is why I am going through these visits. My doctor is Dr. Mehta and she is hoping for an October date. I can't wait it seems like forever since I started this all in November 05. Joy
