Our company just changed health care providers form BCBS to Cigna.  I have the Open Access Plus. 

BCBS was so great with regard to my Gastric Bypass, I am hoping Cigna will be equally awesome at covering a TT (or panniculectomy) since the excess skin is fairly large and gets pretty gross.  

Anyone have any tips here?  I've taken pictures of my rashes etc a couple of times...

So far I've had no luck getting them to cover a panni for me. However I do have a hernia so the surgeon is getting some of my OR time covered and they had no problem covering that.
