Cannot find a 2004 documented weight!

OK, after weeks of practically harrassing my PCP to send my records to the SWL coordinator, I find out I have NO documented proof of my weight for 2004! That's the only thing I need to meet the requirements!

Have any of you had this problem? What did you do? Were you denied coverage? I have BCBS of NC SEP. Anyone have experience with them?

I had the EXACT same issue but was gratefully able to call my OBGyn...who puts you on the scales for breathing ... and she had documented weights for me. I had stopped 'allowing' my PCP to weigh me each time I came in ... it was just too embarrassing. Do you have any other docs who can help you?

I am so sorry this is happening to you. I know how frustrating and disappointing it is to fight so hard for something you know is right for you, only to have BS insurance adjusters decide your fate.

I wish you the BEST of luck and don't stop fighting. That is a completely bogus response from your insurance company and they know it. Talk to your surgeon/surgeons insurance coordinator. Mine was - at her insistence - prepared to get a lawyer involved for me when UHC pulled the stunt and decline me.
