Does anyone here have KPS insurance? I was denied for the gastric Sleeve. That is what I really want. Is there anyone who appealed the denial and was able to get it approved? Any help would be GREAT!!!

Thanks!

Kinda depends on why it was denied. If it is because they don't consider it a good surgery or maybe they just never cover it. It can't hurt to try an appeal. I just saw a gal on the revision board get approved for a surgery that she's been working on for 3 years, so I guess persistance pays off.

Thanks...I'm going to try.
But luckily my husband just let me know that our insurance is up for review, and since he works for the post office, there are many different companies to choose from. I think next week, I will start calling them. Hopefully one will cover the sleeve and I won't have to fight for it.

Thanks!
