Hello, I also have Paramount Advantage. My husband and I are both going through the process. Paramount does require a 6 month diet, Nut. and Pys. Exam I am not sure about the weight history, and also a PCP Clearance. My last appt. is Dec 3rd, so when I found out everything I will let you know.

I am in Ohio and I have the UHC community plan of ohio which is a managed medicaid plan. I had to do 3 month supervised diet (which is  a total of 4 weigh ins) and have my doctor send in a medical necessity letter. My last appointment is this thurs the 13th and its my psy evaluation and then we will be submitting the info into the surgeon. I am hoping for good news!!
