I got denied a year ago for lack of information. I had changed drs an she is pretty positive I'm going to get it this time. I have a bmi of 39. She's basically putting in every health issue that's wrong with me. Even headaches..lol. Has anyone had any difficulties with tricare south or maybe some advice. I'm waiting for a call from the surgeon for the first appointment were he puts it into the insurance. I'm super super nervous an can't stop thinking about it.

i have tricare prime north.not sure what lack of info means

i do however wish you all the luck

The surgeon I went to only put my height an weight. Nothing else so tricare denied for lack of info.

ah, now i get it. sorry so slow.

hope your new dr is very much better

Glad you changed doctors not sure the previous one knew what kind of surgery he was going to preform. Sorry, I could not resist. If your physician lists all your comorbidities (other health problems) sorry nurse her. Than your insurance should approve. Mine required hx of failure at diets and a letter from my primary care doctor. I have United Health Care.

Yea that's why I changed drs..lol. my primary care dr seems very confident that I'm going to get approved. I just don't want to get my hopes all up for it to be shot down again.
