Question:
Insurance Co requirements - Health America HMO

Anyone out there have Health America HMO that has been approved for this surgery? I am in my 2nd month of supervised visit and already completed all my eval's that they will require (psych and nutrition) It will be very upsetting to get through the 3rd month and be denied. How does Health America HMO view BMI's and Co-morb's. Do they require certain co-morbs at certain BMI's? Has anyone with Health America had to purchase different insurance to get through the surgery or go self pay? Some insurance companies have a website that posts info and updates about particular surgries such as this... does Health America have this? How are they post op as far as tummy tucks and such?    — Christine S. (posted on October 16, 2003)
