Hello,congrats on getting approval and not giving up! That's one of my fears not getting approved. Im nearing the end of all my appts.May I ask what reason they gave you guys for not approving.

I've gain weight since I started and I've read that insurance could denie me.

I started 5/29 x did all my appointments and was cleared by psych, dietician, my labs but I didn't have 6 months ( well why the heck was I referred and approved to the bariatric clinic?), so my medical group denied me. Appealed - insurance denied for not medically necessary.... LOL..really?? Come to find out they didn't request my records from uc Davis. Once everyone worked together I got approved

They could but that's part of the honest battle of obesity...trying and failing to lose or gaining back. Push ahead, if they deny - appeal, if they deny again - appeal again. Dig your feet in fight for what you want.

Congrats all! So glad for you
