Healthchoice Oklahoma



Recommended Posts

Can anyone who has had weight loss surgery with Healthchoice as their insurance explain to me what healthchoice's requirements are? I know on their website it states you must be on a healthchoice plan 12 consecutive months prior to surgery. I was on healthchoice 2015 and 2016 and last option period global health came out with their $0 Co pays.... So I thought I'd try that cause my bills with healthchoice were stacking up... Type 2 Diabetes, neuropathy, heart palpitations u name it, all things related to me needing weight loss surgery. After I had already enrolled into global health for this year I learn that Bariatrics would be a covered benefit with healthchoice, but was already too late, I had already enrolled into global health! Would I have to wait 12 months or since I had already used healthchoice 12 consecutive before would they go ahead and approve me? With all that I have wrong with me waiting 12 months to have surgery is NOT in my best interest! Any help on this topic greatly appreciated!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
