Anyone w/medicare have wls with RMAP

Let's try this again. I was wondering if anyone that has medicare in Utah has haed wls with RMAP. Since Cigna is being so difficult, I was thinking of going through my medicare. RMAP insists that medicare says you must have 5 years of documented medically supervised weight loss attempts or they won't pay for the surgery. I have posted this on the general message board and have had people tell me that medicare has paid for their surgery at 100% and they did not have 5 years of medically supervised weight loss attempts. I was wondering if anyone here in Utah had this experience. Please let me know if you have going through this. THANKS
