Question:
Looking for an appeal letter specifically for lap-band?

Has anyone been denied by insurance for lap-band due to not being medically necessary and appealed and won. I am looking for a sample letter for referance.    — tlkenyon68 (posted on January 14, 2004)

I am sorry that I don't have a sample letter for you. But you may want to ask a couple of other groups: <p> http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/BandstersInsurance/ <p> http://www.spotlighthealth.com/common/SG/topics.asp?m=1&sb=25

You might check the Bandsters Insurance board. There are several appeals letters listed under "Files." http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/BandstersInsurance/
