Question

Does anyone know what the ins co means when you have to be 200% over weight?

I never heard of that.  It would be best to talk to your surgeon to find that one out.  I know that when you are post-op, the surgeon sets goals for percentage of excess weight lost at each visit.

I thought the insurance compainies looked at BMI and co-morbidities more than anything.

I'm with Trish I've not heard of having to be a % overweight except that my surgeon wanted me to be 100% overweight to do surgery on me. In my case my goal weight would be about 150 lbs and 100% of that would be 300 lbs which I made with no problem. As for my insurance they just wanted a certain BMI. I agree with Trish the best thing to do would be talk to your doc or the insurance co. and have them explain it so it's more understandable for you, cause I don't quite get it either. Best of luck to you and so glad to see you over here with us Christian folks, we're all pulling for you!
