I see my PCP Friday and she gave me a hard time 2 wks ago about a letter of medical necessity.
I was thinking of preparing a letter and asking her to sign it.
Can anyone give me some ideas as what is should say?

Thanks a bunch

Got a lap band in 2008. Tried hard, but didn't lose much weight & developed swallowing problems. Fought my insurance company for almost a year & finally had a band to DS revision on 5/11/12. Have now lost 125 pounds. Yay!

Hi Ginny,

I can send you a copy of my letter of necessity that I typed, my PCP read it and signed it for me when I had RNY in 2004.  Send me your personal email address and I will forward to you.  You can cut and paste what you like out of it.

Good luck to you.

Frankie
