I have BCBS and they require a 12 month dr supervised diet history--which they do not pay for--they will send you a letter to send in all dr and non dr supervised diets---I hadd 14 months of diet history from Metabolic Research ad they rejected it as there was not doctor on premises to examine me every time---I do not see how they can require you to participate ina dr supervised diet that they will not cover at any percentage--I have hired Walter to represent me---this has been going on since Nov. 01--I was just denied for not having supporting evidence---they have 14 years of medical records---its just a game with them

I had a friend who did not have a lot of history either. I told her to find anything and everthing she could pertaining to her weight, and diets, including ANY healthclub memberships she has been a member of, even letters from friens/family. While they may not be med. supervised, it worked for her.OBGYN, Even chiropratic treatments do to back pain, etc...You may have more than you realize if you go back far enough. Good luck!
