Thanks!  My insurance is BC/BS Federal (wife's employer) and they covered WLS provided you have a BMI of 40 or higher,  OR a BMI of 35 with 2 or more co-morbidities (diabetes, sleep apnea, congestive heart failure, severe edema, etc.). Although we have the BC/BS Federal, since my residence is in Alabama, I did have to communicate with BC/BS Alabama and found they have the same requirements. Then, since I opted to have Dr. Richards at Vanderbilt's Center of Excellence (BC/BS recommends using a Center of Excellence) in Nashville do my surgery, my case was actually handled by BC/BS Tennessee out of Chattanooga.  It is my understanding that the requirements are the same for all of the BC/BS Major policies - but I am not 100% positive on that. 

Hope this is helpful and good luck to ya!

Way to go Bob!  I agree with Melinda, we need to be on the cover of GQ, cause we are just that good looking!  On second thought, I'll do it as long as I get to wear my crown!

Below goal is a good thing, as long as it's not too much below goal!


thumbs up

Thanks Scott! I agree with Mel too - 'specially since I'm the best lookin' of us 3!  BwaHahahaha!!  (I know, that ain't saying much!)

I am still losing though.  Hopefully, I'll be able to add a few pounds of mucsle back and stabilize around 200 pounds.
