Hi. I have health insurance with my job . The highest plan ppo premium and I would like to get the sleeve. I meet all the requirements but I’m scared that my plan dies not cover it and my plan goes in effect Nov.1 and I am scared they will deny me due to I just got covered. Help anyone have bcbstx health insurance? Does anyone know if I can still try to apply for the surgery even thou it’s my first month being covered?

Are you starting a new job or just changing insurance companies at your place of employment... that is what makes the difference. IF it is a new job you may want to ask about coverage but it is a new insurance company they should cover anything your other company covered.

Not sure about the being new thing, but I also have bcbstx and my sleeve surgery was covered 80/20 after my deductible was met.

Hopefully things will work out for you!

      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! 😞
