Insurance - UHC Choice Plus
I have United Health Care CHoice Plus. I called customer care and was told that while WLS was excluded on my plan, they would review cases if doctors deemed it a medical necessity.
Now folks at OSU say that in their experience the WLS probably won't be covered--that it is an exclusion period.
What are my options at this point? If WLS is excluded, am sol?
I have that plan, and they are paying for my surgery. However, it was not an exclusion in my policy. I have the UHC Choice Plus Definity. My cost is around 5200.00 but, they didnt make me jump through hoops.
