Have you talked with the staff at Dr. Chapman's office?  Maybe they can do something.

I wouldn't give up quite so easily if I were you. It's honestly not that uncommon to get a denial that is followed by an approval later. It could be that they didn't like they 'way' the 6 month diet and exercise were documented. It may be something else. It's definitely worth finding out what the reasons were to see what can be done. I'd ask them for specifics and ask your Dr's insurance specialist to see if they can get some information too. It' s in there best interest as well as yours to find out what the problem is and see if they can help you to resolve it.

I'm sorry to hear about your denial. I have not had a chance to get get on the web for a month. I've been so busy working.
I finally seen my surgeon office for my final visit this past week. Now Im waiting for my approval. Don't give up. Things happen for a reason. God will make a way. It's not in our time,it's in his time.

I wouldn't give up right now after all the hard work you put in over the 6 month period.  I have seen many many people on the boards who got denied, appealed it once they found out what nonsense reason there was and got approved.
