SAN DIEGO KAISER: Does anyone know who I can contact about the extra 6month Kaiser wants me to do in nutrition since I do not have proof of Weigh****chers.  As said before this is an additional 24 weeks to the class for surgery so it would be 1 year of classes just because I have no proof.

I'm not sure who you can contact, but in case you don't already know, you can always file a grievance against Kaiser's Option program. They'll deny your grievance & you'll have to file with the DMHC, but most likely they'll rule in your favor & you won't be required to attend the classes. The whole process can take anywhere from 2-3 months. PM me if you would like more details on how to do this. HTH!
Won against big bad (SoCal) Kaiser for a Duodenal Switch  Haven't heard of DS? Kaiser wants it that way. Come on over & read the truth
Hit goal (Normal BMI) on 2-10-11!    I LOVE my DS!!
My approval process timeline:
02/12/09 - Dr. refused to refer me for WLS
03/03/09 - Vented/whined about it on another board, planned to just wait until next year & switch plans
Let's see what happens!  **updates in blog**
