    Hey there! From Dunkirk and have BCBS of Wny and they approved me two days after my doc submitted. I had a BMI of 40.

    I did have to do six months of monitoring with my primary doc before they would submit though. I did mine at Hamot in Erie so things may be a bit different for you.

    Good luck!!
