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 changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
