|  Very confused and upset with Ins co!!!!!! I have been waiting for some response from Insurance co, and they kept telling me they had no referral on the computer, I asked to speak to supervisor because they kept insisting there was no referral from doc's office but I had seen it myself, Well they called doc's and found the lady who had my case sitting on her desk, remember I had psych eval, nuts, and everything they said was needed on checklist, now they want new psych eval and for me to see dietician again? Is it because they were from my own doctors and they want their own doctor reports? aaaarrrrgggh!!!

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.  |

Weight Loss Method - | Why does it matter if it was from your own doctor or from theirs? Honestly, I would fight that because I don't see why the info would be any different coming from their doctor. Hang in there.

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass  | def call back and speak to someone with authority and request EVERYTHING THAT THEY TELL YOU in writing. makes no sense they want it done over unless a year or so has already passed. DONT GIVE UP. insurance companies suck!

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass | I had to come back to this. When I first joined this board I litteraly went off about insurance companys and how they do stuff. The one thing I have noticed is more of them are paying for this surgery. However they are not making it any easier to get it done. |
