I am both excited an nervous about this whole process. I began this journey in May (the 15th) to be exact. I have had all the required tests done. At this point I am waiting for an answer from the insurance company.
Currently, my BMI is 42.3, so I am really ready for this, I have no comorbid condiditons. I have been at 39.7 or more for the past 5 years. I have BCBS of RI and my question to all of you is how stringent are they? Do they automatically deny the surgery? How difficult is the appeal process?
Any help, suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
