Good afternoon all! Has anyone had to go the route of sending in a letter from your primary care dr with pictures for the last three years versus the records for the last three years to show that you have indeed had the require BMI for that long??

I'm kind of in a pickle and am starting to panic. I am a little over one month away from being finished with my 6 month dr. supervised fitness/diet. My insurance also required documentation for the last 3 years. However, the last 3 years i've only been to the urgent care (who moved locations), another dr (office is closed now), and the orthopedic who didn't weigh me. The first two are really giving me a HARD time about sending my records over because they are in "storage". I'm starting to panic because I don't want this to hold me up. Its like, being "healthy" is now coming back to haunt me on the medical records front.

If I can't get that documentation, my insurance will take a letter from my primary care physician along with photos from the last 3 years. I dont' really want to go this route because it takes alot longer to get approved, and my current primary care physician is new to me (just 5 months now) so I'm not sure if he can vouch for the last three years that he hasn't known me. ANY help is appreciated, hoping someone was in a similar situation and can put my mind at ease, almost in tears! I'm SO close!

Tell the first two to give you your re ords. They cant hold them hostage. You have rights to your information. Hope all goes well
