Hi i have may choose metroplus as my HMO I have Medicaid . I was wondering if the 6 months diet it's required with metroplus Medicaid .

On your insurance card there should be a customer service number to call. You can call and ask. Also, most surgeon's offices are good about getting the insurance information and will help you with that.

Thank You . I will do that once i get my hmo card

Did MetroPlus cover the surgery for you?

Did MetroPlus cover the surgery for you?

yes it did . I went to Bellevue hospital in NYC and they don't required a 6 month diet . It all depends on your hospital or doctor . My first appt was 2/27/15 and my surgery date was 7/7/15.

That's awesome! My PCP told me to contact MetroPlus to make sure they covered the surgery and they told me no. I'm hoping I just got an uninformed customer service representative.

Did you need to be referred by your PCP to Bellevue? Or did you go straight there? I'm researching and I get contradictory information. =[

you did !. If you are close to Bellevue hospital I'll suggested to just go to Bellevue hospital and change your PCP to one of them. Reason why it's because is more convinces for you Bellevue bariatric team takes care of everything for you . And when I mean everything is everything they arranged your appointments all of them on the first day you see your surgeon . Not only that they will filed your claim to make sure that metroplus will cover your surgery. I don't know if you know but Bellevue its affiliated with metroplus so they will approved it .

Amazing! Thank you so much! I'm going to go over there this coming week! You've been super helpful!

Your Welcome ! I advice you to call and scheduled your first appointment instead of going over . They are most likely going to set you up for a seminal. If you already went to one just make sure to tell them so that way they don't have you go to the seminar and delay things for your surgery date . Good luck ! And keep me posted :-)

Yes call cause they aiready dont have any openings for october
