I wasn't in True Results in Richardson.

But while the company may be knowledgeable about how to present your surgery to the insurance company, it's still up to the insurance company. The doctor or company doing the surgery plays a small part.

Still, the pluses of going through true results... they do know how to write, and since weight loss surgery is their whole business, they are likely to work hard if rejected to help you get a second, or even third hearing.

The negative is that the insurance company knows that certain doctors, and companies like True Results, specialize in weightloss surgery. So they might be less likely to read the emergency need for the surgery no matter how they word it...

In other words, True Results might work harder, but they would be less likely to put a smoke screen than an independent doctor.

Like I said, those are not my experience. I am just giving thoughts based on logic and in talking to others. Some here might have some circumstantial evidence differently, and I certainly don't claim to be the voice of experience.

But that is the thought of one who took the fast track into surgery by going around insurance and working private pay...

As long as you meet all your insurance's stated requirements, they cannot really deny you

it's up to true results to help you achieve the requirements (cardiac clearance, upper GI, 6 month supervised diet, etc etc)

Thats who I used. Not sure if the one I went to is considered Richardson because its in Bedford,(im still new to Texas) but they were pretty awesome about putting my paperwork together. Seriously, the lady in the back office was relentless with my dr's offices in Las Vegas.

I used true results in bedford. They were awsome, and the patient advocate really went above and beyond to help out with questions and things like that. I would go there again. and I would recommend them.

I am using True Results Houston and just got approved by Fed BCBS. Paperwork was submitted 8/23 and today it was Approved!
