UHC Choice plus - 35 BMI with comorbidities

or BMI of 40 or more? Does that sound right? I took notes when I was on the phone with my insurance co. and it seems that if my BMI was at least 40 I did not need any comorbidities. Does that sound right to any of you?

    Yes, it does. I think that is what I've heard with many people. I also have UHC and that is what they told me.
