Hi, everyone!
I have a pretty nice plan with BCBS of NC (that I will lose 9/1/14 since the premium increase is so much due to obamacare). As of the middle of this month, BCBS dropped the 6-month supervised diet.
My paperwork was submitted on 7/28/14 and I was approved for surgery today, 8/5/14. Not bad at all, especially since two of those days were the weekend! I have my results visit with my surgeon tomorrow morning. This is all happening lightening fast!
