  1. Hey, I am currently VERY close to a BMI of over 40, I live in Ohio and my husband has UHC, so I am just wondering what they want for approval, I know every plan is different. Do I have to be over weight for the past 5 years, is that all? Thanks, just curious? update- :ohmy:as far as I know what I have to do is have a BMI over 40 and go on a 6 month diet and I was told that at the end of that diet I must still be over a 40 BMI or surgery won't be covered, so any suggestions on how to keep the surgery being covered? Cause I don't want to loose 10 lbs after going on a diet and then not qualify for the surgery being covered...???:thumbdown:
