We have our insurance thru BOEING UHC HMO, I was just denied on appeal from this plan because I did not meet their standard or 40 on the BMI, I am 38.8 with co-morbidities however since this is an exclusion on the HMO I am thinking of switching to the PPO Choice plan in November and was wondering if anyone knows if I would qualify on that plan.

HELP!!!!!:help::help::help::help::help::help:

I have UHC choice and it was covered, but I was over bmi 40- you may try to appeal their decision and see what happens-as far as I know by changing to ppo it doesn't mean it will change the criteria for approval.
