writing a personal letter to the insurance company

Hi!

I am wondering if anyone knows exactly what the insurance wants or doesn't want when writing the benefits of surgical weight loss letter.

Suggestions welcome.

I've never even heard of this.....but I would assume you should write about what would be beneficial to them. You'd be healthier, so less doctor and prescription costs.

I wrote one. You need to write all the medic conditions that affect you. You should mention your starting weight, bmi, also how long it took you to get where you are in weight, kids, etc. almost an autobiography of your medical history, why you want the surgery and what your plan is. How will it change your life, medically and personally. Good luck

Check out this topic online. I have seen some examples online of what you should write. You may find some good information.
