Anyone have security health insurance?
I am very close to the end of my 6mo supervised dietian supervised diet in fact i see her for the last time before the doc on oct 10th, I already seen the physc. so i already have that done, and as far as i am aware that is all the security health requires, then i see the surgeon on oct 12th, then as i understand it everything will be sent to insurance for approval. My question is, that i have security health insurance, i am about 5'3 345lbs, but i dont really have any major documented heath problems, i mean i have joint pain all the time knee pain like you wouldnt believe, and i just got a test back showing slightly high cholesterol but that is all, do you think that i will have a problem getting approved, or can anyone comment how their time with security health went?? any comments would be greatly appriciated!
Lisa,
I had a BMI of about 48 and several comorbidities. I had surgery 4/23/04. I had no problem being approved.
My daughter just was approved and had her surgery on 10/10/06. Her BMI was somewhat less with no comorbidities other than knee pain. She also had no problem being approved once her 6 mo supervised dieting was complete.
Security Health has been really good with every one I know. good luck and hope to see you on the losers bench soon.
