After being denied twrice, and the second letter making no sense at all, my mother talked to the people at the bariactric office. After reading through my letter of denial they called Tricare and found out my case was sent to an outside doctor who obviously had no clue what Tricare's requirements were. My surgeon actually talked to the head administrator of Tricare and finanlly got it approved. So now, seven months after it started, this is finally going to happen for me. I am so excited I can hardly contain myself. I will soon be recieving my surgery date, and can not wait. :thumbdown:

I will be banded by Dr. Robert Cywes in Jacksonville, Florida.

I am soooo happy for you!!!! yayay!!!

I have tricare as well and they are usually really good and i am so glad that its all set now.

good luck with everything :thumbdown:!!!!

Congratulations! I can only imagine the relief you must be feeling! I wish you continued success!
