Ok I was talking to my Dr's office Ins girl and she said that the code for VSG is 43999 and that it is a generic code and she told me that they (BCBSM) will not cover it anyway. I told her that I would appeal it though. What code was used for approved VSG? I posted in VSG too.
I called them back and they said that the revision code is 43999 not 43843.

Highest weight- 262lbs
Lap band- Aug 2006 - 254lbs.

At 5'8 my goal was 160lbs but I surpassed that with the DS!!!!!!
