The lady I talked to said United Healthcare is the easiest insurance to get the surgery approved through.

Hi NatchezQueenbee71,

Can you give me the name and contact information for the surgeon you mention? I would love to add them to my "short" list.

Thanks,

Kath

Hi

I would get on the phone and request they let you change your policy. Don't take any "you have to wait" until enrollment line. Let them know to either give you the name and number of a WEIGHT LOSS SURGEON that takes your insurance or let you change plans to one of them that Dr. O'Connell is taking. Again here is the list:

United Healthcare

LA Healthcare

Amerihealth Capis

Keep me posted :-)
