Have you found out if you have been approved. I'm waiting on results of a sleep study before calling for an appt. with the bariatric surgeon. I too have BCBST

7 month supervised diet required. Policy changed 2 weeks ago.

I have anthem I had a 6 month required "wait"

BC/BS of Tennessee changed policy 2 weeks ago. The 6 month supervised diet is now really 7 months. The time from the very first weigh in to the last must be 180 days, so this is technically 6 months and 2 weeks. I completed my 6th visit yesterday and submitted to surgeon and was advised of the changes. This practice is top notch and on top of things! They had no warning from BC/BS of the new requirements. The clinic coordinator stated that she has 7 denials on her desk, but lucky for me I can attend one more visit with my PCP. Others not so lucky!! If I had to start this whole waiting game over, I would be devastated!

This is very frustrating! I'm on month four and to find out I have to wait even longer is irritating. It feels like we have to jump through all these hoops and the insurance co. can change the rules mid game.
