Can I make up fake co-morbitities to qualify for lap band?
I know everyone will hate me for even asking but I have a 36 BMI, no co-morbitities (yet) and under my UHC ins won't qualify for lap band. They said I have to have sleep apnea, high blood pressure, diabetes, back aches in order to qualify with a bmi of 36. I have been overweight since I was 11 years old, I can lose weight for a short time only to gain that back plus more. I work for an OBGYN who I will use for my PCP if I decide to pursue lap band. From what I've read it sounds like I might have a problem with sleep apnea but it costs$2100.00 to get a sleep study here!!!!
Any info would be helpful.
