Revision from Band to Sleeve - Federal Insurance Recommendation

I've had a lapband for 2.5 years and have been experiencing troubles (acid reflux, trouble with solid foods, etc.) and am considering revising to the sleeve. The problem is my current insurance (Federal BCBS Basic) does not cover a revision under these circumstances and at my current weight (I went from a 41 BMI to a 31 BMI with the band). Are there any Federal employees in Colorado that have managed to have their revision from band to sleeve covered by their insurance? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I cannot afford it any other way.
