Denied

Aug 29, 2011

So I received a letter on Saturday that I was denied.  Seems that Capital Blue Cross doesn't accept the Gastric Sleeve.  There are still looking into this type of procedure...seems they don't have all the answers as to what the Gastric Sleeve is, I mean if they approve Gastric Bypass and that's more invasive then why not the Gastric Sleeve...Urgh!!

I spoke to the Dr office this morning and we are going to appeal it.  I need to gather more info from my PCP and send it back to them to submit to the insurance for the appeal. 

Has anyone been denied and had to appeal, if so, any suggestions on what I should do?

Thank you.
