I have bcbs of New Jersey and was just approved this morning with no issues. They seem to be pretty good. Just make sure you have everything together before it is submitted to avoid getting denied. Good luck. I'm now scheduled for feb 27!!!!

I am not sure what the weight loss clinic sent in but I had to get a physc. aval, visit a nut, get my primary to write a letter, a sleep study, and history of obesity. I think that might be it!

Will someone tell me what has to be sent in with BCBS TX? I would love to see what that have sent you guys too.

IF you have the benefit, the medical policy requires a psych eval & if your BMI is below 40, documentation of two recognized co-morbidities (like sleep apnea & diabetes for example). Your plan (as ALL BCBSTX plans) may differ according to what your employer chose to purchase so best to call customer service for details. Good luck!
