Hey everyone, Sept 16 will complete my 6 months of medically supervised diet, passed psych eval and consult was done back in Feb. I have BCN and live in MI. I'm so worried they will deny me! I meet all medical criteria. Its an irrational fear because i need this surgery and i'm done dieting and trying to lose weight, its grown tiresome after 20+ years....so my question is has anyone been approved or denied and have BCN as their insurance?

Thanks!

I am in MI with BCN. I'm still in my 6 month supervised diet and have the same fear, but the patient coordinator at my surgeon's office said she's never had any issues with BCN. As long as the doctor fills out the paperwork completely (i.e. More than one word answers), you should be okay. Good luck! I'd love to hear how your approval process goes!
