Letter from Tricare

I got today the denied letter from Tricare finally !! I did send my letter for reconsideration  2 weeks ago  and I am glad I did :-) Just as i aspected Tricare denied me beause they think PCOS its not  a high risk co-mo. and thats what I wrote in my reconsideration letter with a lots of help from here. I havent heard anything  back yet  but they say it can take up to 30 days.Just wanna give you guys a update :-) I so hope they approve me this time , finger crossed :-)

Keeping my fingers crossed too. Dang, I hope they decide in your favor.

I'm swinging for you. 

 I hope they reconsider.  Have you had a sleep study or been checked for high cholesterol.
Good luck.

No i havent been tested for those but if Tricare decides to denie me again I will talk to my doctor about that :-)

I have tricare prime also.  Your doctor should have tested you for co-morbidities such as sleep apnea, high cholesterol, diabetes etc before the paperwork was turned in.  Because your BMI is less than 40 you will need two co-morbidites to qualify. 

I used to have their policy requirements bookmarked but I don't think I have it anymore.  I'm pretty sure PCOS isn't considered a co-morbidity.  I'll have a look for it and post it for you if I find it.
