My insurance requires a 6 mo supervised diet. I did 4 but couldnt afford it after that and stopped (that was a year ago before I was even considering bariateic surgery). Well, they will accept the 6 mo if it was in the last 3 years. Well, my surgeon wrote a letter to the insurance and now we are waiting to hear back if approved or not. They have 30 days total to respond ( already has been about 10). I have a tentative surgery date of Dec 17 and now totally worried that it wont happen! Has anyone not been approved and had to do an appeal letter and then did get approved. Would something like this warrent an appeal letter if it is denied? Completely frustrated as all get out!!
