My paperwork was submitted to my primary insurance company (Cigna) and my secondary (BCBS) on March 14...I received approval from BCBS on March 21st and approval from Cigna on April 4th....Im sooo excited thursday is my bday and I meet with my surgeon to set my date!!! Cant wait to join the losers bench!!! If you haven't been approved yet just hang in there and dont give up because insurance companies love to give people the run around...its a strategy because they feel like eventually you'll get frustrated and give up!!! Keep calling and make them do their jobs because thats what you pay them for...to take care of you!!!

Still being pushed around, my referral was never received at the MTF so after calling around for over an hour and speaking to lots of people I was told it would be faxed and to call the bariatric clinic on Monday to verify that it was received. The people at Bragg's DEERS office were horrible and the people at the office here acted like this has never came up. However I consented for Bragg's bariatric coordinator to give my info to another patient from here, she may be able to get me some POC's to get this actually started. It will soon be a month since my referral was originally put in the computer and "sent". I am getting super frustrated!

I just had a weight check today. Verified all my stuff in done. Already met with doc last month, so she just needs to write up the order. Sleeve and galbladder. Hope the send it out in the next few days. I have Athem Blue Cross of CA. I hear they are really quick as long as the docs office sends all the right stuff. I'm so excited.

I was super nervious until a month ago when I met with the doc and she suggest the sleeve instead of the regular bypass. I researched it and feel much better about this procedures. Nerves are almost totaly gone and relplaced with excitment.
