Hi you two - congratulations on getting your surgery dates!!! :-). Soon you both will be on the LOSERS BENCH!

Hey everybody! I have UHC. My coordinator should have submitted everything yesterday. I emailed her and asked if she did, no answser back yet. So I am in limbo I guess. I didn't think about calling UHC and seeing if they have it. I will have to give it a try!

Hi jtower97, good luck, I sure hope you are approved soon! :-)

Thanks, royalsecret. I just got an email saying that my packet is being sent today! I hope I hear something soon!

Congratz Jessie mine is June 3. Supist to be on May 13. But postponed till June for personal reasons. Happy fir us good luck keep posted! :)

One more week finally to see if I'm aproved

Hey everybody, I'm new to all this. I have United Health Care but don't know what my requirements are yet. I've been researching bariatric procedures for over 10 years & have seen all kinds of results. I'm praying to make it to the "approval round" this time around.

I have UH.. I'm a bit stressed as I just got aletter from them with their payout info.. and they are saying I owe 10,000 because the surgery was not approved.. My doctor said it was, and when I called a while back the lady said I was..

I am really praying that this is some sort of error.

I am just starting the process with UHC. They are telling me I need the 6 month supervised diet. I've had my consultation and first nutritionist meeting. A lady from my surgeon's office told me to call and request a case manager at UHC or something. I have 5 years established history with my PCP of BMI over 40. She thinks with that I can get it down to 3 months MWM. WIsh me luck!
