Insurance Question

Anyone have United Healthcare? If so, what hoops did they make you jump through for approval?:)

I have United as well, and it took about 3 weeks before I got my approval letter. My BMI was 37, but I have sleep apnea and some other problems that might have counted. I was worried that my BMI wasn't high enough (ha ha), but I guess my company paid for decent coverage! Yay! I don't think United usually requests 6-month diets or anything.

Maddie, I had my surgery with Dr Stephan in Mesquite and it was great. His nurse Cindy is really easy to talk to and gives most of the info. I had my surgery 4/24.
