I called Medicare and they said they do not pre-approve.

Has anyone had a problem getting Medicare to approve WLS? I really don't want to go through the whole preop process only to have them refuse to pay. I have Anthem BCBS as a secondary insurance. They said they will pay if Medicare pays. Thanks for any help you can offer..MJ
