Question:
Seeking an attorney that handles WLS appeals locally to Raleigh area

I heard from my insurance today and have been denied (BCBS SHP). The insurance person in the MD's office said it was one of the best put together cases she had ever seen and did not understand why it was denied. I have many comorbidities, my BMI is above 40, I had 10 yrs of documented weight history. Referral from PCP, documented trials of medication, diet monitered by an MD. Can anyone help?

Try Walter Lindstrom at obesitylaw.com. He is not local, but doesn't have to be. He has won many cases on her, including my case just recently.

I also used Walter and Kelley Lindstrom. They are the best and it was worth the money. They wrote one letter on May 29 and on June 3rd my denial was overturned.
