my pcp just recommended me to start the process for wls but i am concerned about getting approved i have harvard pilgrim for insurance and my pcp reffered me over bcuz i have pcos i am 5'2" at 240 lbs unable to loose any weight for many years i am also starting to have problems with my blood pressure it has been slightly high for the past 3 weeks i have urinary incontinence, and problems with my knees and acillis tendons (not sure of spelling) due to overweight my pcp said i was a perfect candidate for wls and recommended the sleeve my question is can i get approved with just these conditions or does it have to be like a bigger medical condition?

You probably have enough reasons already but each insurance company is different. The best way to find out is to call & ask them. Good luck to you!

Thanks Pixie Dust! I did call them already but all i was told was that harvard pilgrim does cover it as long as its for medical reason and that i have a copay
