Chicken tortilla soup and fighting BCBS

Hey guys, I lost the email address of whomever I owed this recipie to so I figured I'd just post it for all.  It's very quick and simple and the only modification I make is that I don't measure the corn and hominy, I just use the whole can.  By doing this I find I need more liquid so I use an entire carton of chicken broth and more water.  Anyway, here goes

Also, I know this has probably been addressed numerous times, but I never paid attention cause it didn't apply to me, but I have someone who beyond qualifies and seems to have an exclusion on his BCBS of GA through Dekalb schools, any insight on how he can get approved?  Thanks in advance.

He can wait for open enrollment and choose the HRA or High Deductible UHC or Cigna plans. They are the only ones that will cover wls.

He can start his pre-op testing and 6 mos diet now. That way by January when the new insurance is active he will be ready to submit to insurance.  The current insurance will cover pre-op testing and supervised diet visits.  He also needs to do 6 mos of supoort groups.

Since, he can't have the surgery until he does the pre-op stuff anyway, it's not so bad he has to wait til January to be covered for wls.
