United Healthcare Tricare

Does anyone have UHC Tricare? I'm got my Lap Band out last month and am going through the step for gastric bypass. I've heard conflicting information on how long I need to be on a weightless plan before I can be submitted for insurance approval. Is it 3 months or 6 months?

    I have one more test to complete before the surgeon submits for my surgery. If your bmi is over fifty it'd three months of weight loss attempts. If it's under fifty is six months. I actually work for a health plan and these are the standards we use at work as well.
