All my paperwork was submitted to insurance on monday to BCBS-Fed, which included a 6 month supervised diet I did last year....well they told me today its too old and I need it 3 months prior to surgery!!!! So I now have to do a 3 month diet with a nutritionist?!? I'm so frustrated!!! I tried calling the doctors office to see what my options are and of course didn't get a hold of anyone!!! Please, any advise or words of encouragement would be appreciated!!!

Yeah, that is the new policy with Fed. 3 months goes fast though, you could be working with the surgeon at the same time and have your surgery scheduled for just about 3 months from now if all goes well

Stacy,

I just responded to your post in sloow doctors. I tried to cut and paste, but my phone won't let me.

I hope it helps.

I also have BCBS Fed.
