cat lady, I'm sorry to hear that you was denied by BCBS. You are the second person that posted today and said that they were was denied by BCBS. This is what freshstart2010 posted Today the insurance company finally responded. I was denied. I have been at this since April and had completed the 6 month supervised nutrition and exercise plan. I have H/C, sleep apnea, gout, bladder incontience, and chronic back pains. My BMI is 37.8 and still I am denied by PA BC/BS. I still don't understand why.

freshstart2010, I'm so sorry to hear that you was denied, but it's a bless that you are able to go into your saving for your surgery. I have personal choice BCBS, I hope and pray that I get approve. Zippy74, Congratulations Cathy, That's what I was thinking about doing. Thursday DH and I leave for vacation, so I'm going to whole off until then. The day after I get back from my trip I'm going to run over the the Drs. office. Gale

Will I'm joining the club. My last visit with the surgeon was on July 19, 2010 that's when I was given the date for Surgery. I'm also concern about the insurance approving the surgery.

CSinTX I'm hoping and praying that my Surgeon did submit my paperwork after my last visit on July 20, 2010. I have been calling his office, I think he is on vacation. I will be call again tomorrow.
