Well we heard back after a month on Tuesday and it was denied because my BMI wad 39.8 instead of 40. My nurse said she has never had an ins deny because of that especially since I also have asthma. She has already appealed it and is supposed to be talking to the medical director at the ins. I am trying to stay positive but am feeling discouraged.

Hang in there. Insurance can be a real pain!!!!

Mine took a month. Longest month of my life! You'll have your answer soon

Don't be discouraged . It will work out for you , keep positive thoughts !

Thanks for encouragement!

My doctors sent my information into the insurance 2 weeks ago and I haven't heard ANYTHING!! My BMI is WAY over 40 but I have no co- something or others (: So I know how you feel....wishing you luck from NC!!

I went ahead and submitted the paper work for the appeal process. I'm hoping I will hear something soon....all this waiting makes me feel like I'm in limbo.
