Talking Good news for me!

That six month requirement with the dietitian seemed like it was going to be forever but I contacted the surgeon's insurance specialist and asked her if we could go ahead and submit for surgery approval pending my final dietitian visit on March 8 and she said yes! So, she is going to submit and once she has verbal approval we can schedule my surgery. Whoo Hooooo!!!!! If all goes well, I may get scheduled in March.

Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
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.

Ask her if they keep a waiting list of people who could be ready for the operation on short notice if they had a cancellation. Might get you in even faster!!

Pre-op is long and for some frustrating. The loser's bench is worth the wait........we're waiting for you, there is plenty of room. Let us know when you get to the next step
