Hi all! If you have United Healthcare I was wondering if you could tell me a few things. My first question is, did you have to go through a supervised diet before they would approve you? And my second question is, how long did it take you to get your approval?
I'm very anxious about my consultation coming up on Dec. 3rd, i'm just so ready to get this ball rolling so I can KNOW, I'm not good at being patient...lol. I've talked to the customer service people at UHC several times and have never got a straight answer to the supervised diet question, one person said it wasn't likely, one person said he's never seen a person have do one, and one person said it's case by case, and then someone else that doesn't work for UHC said they don't make you do one. How did it go for YOU???
Thanks!
