Hi:

Just a quick update (not that anyone knows who I am) regarding my pre-op determination. You know what it's like waiting for a letter in the mail or a phone call regarding surgery. Well I'm not one to wait. I phoned the weight loss clinic and inquired as to when my TEAM meeting would be held. THEY HAD THE MEETING YESTERDAY. I have only small steps to take before I get a date. I have three (3) more office visits to complete my six month diet phase. I need to attend a support group. That's it! I have yet to meet the Doc., but that is coming soon I hope. Everyone ( the insurance rep. at the clinic) seems to feel that there will be no problem with BCBS of Minnesota for approval. This has gone way too smoothly. Just needed to share!!!!! Happy Holidays.

Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

That's GREAT news!!! I have BCBS of CA and it was soooo quick and smooth. They didn't require much. Not even a supervised 6 month diet. I was shocked at how quick it went when I really got serious and started doing all of the necessary things. Keep us updated!
