Anyone have Capital Blue Cross???

So, I called the insurance company yesterday and they told me that I needed to have a BMI of 50!!!! I called the surgeon's office and they told me that whoever I talked to didn't know what they were talking about. Has anyone else gone through this? The dr's office also told me that I only need 3 months of the diet and consults with psych, cardio, pulminary, and nutrition...oh and 1 support group meeting. I am 2 months into the diet and still need to do the consults but my BMI is only 42 not 50. I would appreciate some help from anyone who knows what is really going on. Thanks!!!
