Hello All

I am trying to write up my appeal letter in regards to my surgery being denied for coverage. Is anyone willing to share their letters of appeal with me?

I was denied because my skin doesn't hang low enough, however I have had two c-sections and I believe that if it wasn't for that scar tissue it would hang way lower!!

I had RNY April 2018 and have been maintaining my weight (100lb loss) since December 2018

Any help or suggestion are appreciated!!

I don't have a letter and I wish you luck on getting your approval! Do you have any rashes or other problems you could document?
