Need help with appeal letter to insurance.

I have looked at all the answers in the library, but most of the information is not current. My insurance is Tricare Prime. I am 18 months out and am requesting a consult to a plastic surgeon for a panniculectomy. The denial states: This determination of services is not covered under Tricar/CHAMPUS policy is based on the following: Services r/t gastric bypass surgery r/t obesity or weight reduction wheter surgical or non surgical treatment are uncovered. Any help with example appeal letters or advice is greatly appreciated. Thank you. Please feel free to email at [email protected]
