Hi, I have BCBS but not of MD, I live in FL. I can tell you that each policy is different. I would suggest calling them and asking them to send you a letter (that way you have proof if they try to say you didnt have everything) of what is needed. I started my journey back in Oct and I called them. they gave me a letter of everything I needed. They told me I would need 6 months of supervised diet from my Dr, test of diabeties, BP, thryiods, and a few other things. I sent in the test results and only 3 months of doc visits and was approved within a Week. Just give them a Call. I wish you the best of luck.

I had Carefirst Blue Choice of MD, denied due to an exclusion in my small group policy. It is however Maryland law that your employer must carry coverage for weight loss surgery IF you work for a company that has more than 50 employees, and therefore considered a LARGE group policy. I wasn't covered due to the small group technicality. Good luck to you!
