Did you find the information you need? It should actually be outlined in the coverage book they sent you when you signed up for the insurance. Mine does cover it (I have HBCBSNJ Direct Access) and I'm paying about $900 per month.

As far as I know from what I've read on their application, you must have a BMI over 40, have tried a monitored conservative weight loss attempt at some point in the last year, and be over the age of 18.

I hope you get approved! :) I'm waiting on my approval now!

I know I had you all excited in the other thread about horizon and them covering my surgery. But I see that u have BCBS Advantage. Not sure what that is. Mine is Horizon BCBS HMOAccess. Not sure if they are the same so I really hope it gets covered for you, especially since you switched insurance companies. Which doctor are you using?
