insurance approval depends on sleep study

I have my sleep study tonight. I have a low BMI of 36 and high BP but my insurance requires one more comorbidity. I do snore but don't know about sleep apnea. I have never wanted something that is bad for you so much! lol. I don't have my follow up with the sleep clinic for a couple of weeks either so I won't know. Already met with surgeon just waiting on these results before we go further. I have bcbs of il PPO. Anyone else in this position?

If I had insurance that paid for Bariatric surgery - I would need to do the sleep study even though my husband tells me I stop breathing at night. I know what you mean, my BMI is 36 also
