Hiya Marla, am praying that you get an approved statement soon....hey I was just reading your profile and I was at that May 13th orientation too...too bad we didn't get to meet....I have my eval. appt in 2 weeks...what all is expected of me? (and of course it is in 2 weeks if I have the $700 by then) I am finishing up my past lifetime of diet history to have to take to them and my PCP on the 2nd....trying to finish up all the paper work they want when I come also...well keep in touch....
Have a great day!!

OH "Where the seeds of friendship blossom!"
Sorry we did not hook up at May 13th meeting, perhaps next time.
As for the eval, nothing to worry about. They will give you a few questions to answer for the psych, weight you, Doctor will talk with you, diet person will explain about post-op diet and its importance, and you will see psych. He/she will go over questions with you, do you understand what changes you will make in your life?, let you know if you are crazy(kidding) and that is about it. Not so bad. Just takes aloooong time. Pack a lunch!
Take care,
Marla
Marla...I also have blue cross ppo....I called the day after they faxed in my paper work to make sure bc/bs had received it....then it took a whopping 3 days.....so maybe call tomorrow just too see if they received it.....and ALWAYS get the confirmation number too your conversation...bc/bs will give it too you...that way you have a name and a recorded documentation of any conversation you might have with them....just in case ...you never know what can happen....but I am wishing you the best...Carrie
