Insurance company

Hello everyone. I just spoke to my inusrance company and asked her what criteria I need to meet to be eligible for the WLS. She told me that the procedure is covered, however there are three pages of criteria, so she is mailing it to me. 3--pages-is this unreal ??? I am so worried .... Anyone else have this uphill battle?? Thanks, Chris

Hi Chris, unfortunately this is normal. Usually they want you to have documentation of attempts to lose weight with diet and drugs. Also you have to have health problems related to your obesity. Hang in there. Don't give up. Insurance companies count on that so they won't have to pay. Good luck. Mona
