BCBS Federal - Revision for Light Weight
Do you know if BCBS Federal would cover my revision from VSG to RNY. My BMI is 34.1. I called BCBS Fed and they told me they need additional information from my doctor. I wonder if that is a good sign???
I do have Type II Diabetes, High Blood Pressure, High Cholesterol.
I had the Lap Band before I had the VSG. BCBS Fed covered the LB back in 2008.
Then in 2009 I had the VSG but I was self pay.
Thanks for replying.
I have same insurance but I am not a revision so I cannot answer they question :( but I just wanted to ask you one question. Have you by chance looked into the DS surgery? It is the best surgery for resolving comobidities and is has the best track record in keep the weight off. So before you go all out for the RNY, look up the DS on the forums here or on dsfacts.com
