Please read!!!!!

My insurance company called my doctor's office (pcp) yesterday, wanting my last current weight. The nurse told her 227, which is not correct. I had been in the office two weeks ago and weighed 233. This puts my BMI at 40. Anyway - the insurance lady said there was a weight discrepancy and wanted to know what was up! . Also my doctor had written a letter which was NOT in the master file - it was on a desk in his office. The office manager was out of the office all day, so they told her they would send her something this morning. They called me in and got an exact weight (230). They are going to try and straighten it out this morning. My ? is - Did this ruin my chances of approval? Will the insurance company just automatically deny the claim?

Probably not if your Doctors office is willing to clear the matter up for you. Sit back and relax. Donna

Karly, I am praying that this turns out in your favor.

Hopefully this is all cleared up now. If you have co-morbities (diabetes, high blood pressure), it shouldn't effect their decision at all. Good luck!
