Has anyone ever had BCBS of IL PPO that has had DS surgery?  Did BCBS pay or deny?  Any info would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

I am not the policy holder on my insurance, that woule be my mom. I called and asked about gastric surgery and was told no.... I know many people are denied this off hand at first.... how do I get the insurance company to pay for this? I am bound and determined to do this.... I don't expect them to pay for it all... just the majority... my parents said they would help me with copay as long as it's not above a couple thousand. I just need to do this surgery and with my family history of heart disease, type II diabetes, and other obesity related diseases I want to avoid them (if I don't already have them!) What do I need to do?

THANKS!!!!

hi can you tell me how eveything works i live in gaithersburg md and have priority partners

 Is it even possible to get WLS with terrible credit (bankruptcy) and no insurance (self employed) ?  I just wonder if it is even worth my time to try.

 They can't go back and change their files (anyhow, my docs' charts are all electronic). Not unless they want to risk a lawsuit for insurance fraud.
