Change of insurance?

Anyone been denied so you changed your insurance?

Just wondering if the "medically supervised diet" process would have to start over if I change insurance plans? That would be another longgg 6 months :(

I wouldn't think that the medically supervised diet would need to be redone unless the insurance has a weird requirement that it be done by particular doctors or a different provider type than you used. (Dietician, nutritionist, MD/DO) A medically supervised diet is a medically supervised diet. My particular insurance required that I try a medically supervised diet within the prior 2 years. I had not had that so had to do the 6 months. It did not have to occur while I was covered by that insurance company. My insurance allowed it to be done by dietician, nutritionist or a doctor. I also could have documented 6 months with a program like Medi-fast or Weight Watchers.

I'm just so worried about not getting approved that I have so many thoughts running through my head! I should find out sometime in September if I am approved! Keep your fingers crossed! Thanks for your input.
