My insurance policy states -2.The individual must have serially documented active participation in a non-surgical weight reduction regimen for at least 6 continuous months, in the 2 years prior to surgery, to enable both behavioral changes and adequate assessment of anticipated postoperative dietary maintenance. These efforts must be fully appraised and documented by the physician requesting authorization for surgery. I have seen other insurance state 6 months of medically supervised diet...Would you consider this the same??? I am going to call to clarify, but just thought I would ask. I read it as as long as I have at least 6 months trying such as weight watchers, etc, then I am good to go. Just hoping I don't have to wait 6 months from when I started this process, but it may be that too
