No word from the insurance company yet. The good news is the psychologist FINALLY sent the paperwork to the doctor's office. Now if the insurance calls and says "hey we need this" she has it to send to them. Wish I knew what the heck is going on.
If I had a chance for a "do-over" this is how I would go about the Lap Band process.
1. Register for the information seminar required as the 1st step. (At least for my doctor's office)
2. Make an appointment with a registered nutritionist. Make these appointments for once a month. Do this right away on the slight chance you will want to have the Lap band surgery. Very important.
3. Call insurance company and ask to receive information about their policies on weight lose surgery.
4. Go to initial consult with Doctor and start the required appointments he will make for you. For example, psychologist, Pulmonolgist, sleep study, blood work, etc.
5. Keep going to monthly nutritionist appointment so that way when the doctor is ready to send in paperwork for approval you will have already have done it.
Hope this helps.
