BCBS Health Options Florida - HELP!

Help! BCBS in Florida has an exclusion clause for RNY and Lap-band starting this year (1/1/05). I have finally decided to go for it and have the lap-band done and now I've hit a brick wall, its extremely depressing. I was wondering if anyone with my same insurance in Florida has had any success in getting special approval and if so, how you did it? Thank you, Jennifer

Hi Jennifer. I just wanted to let you know that there is not a lot of traffic on this board, so you might consider also posting your question on the Florida message board. You might also check the insurer section of the Florida page. Good luck, Laura
