Guest guest Posted June 7, 2000 Report Share Posted June 7, 2000 How in the world did you get approved for a tummy tuck RNY? I cant even get approved for a gastric bypass....I am supposed to have good insurance. But, I am not sick enough yet . I think that is silly myself. Does anyone out there know what a life threatening condition is??? That is what I have to have in order to be approved. I have been denied and I don't know about an appeal.. Does any one have Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield? If so, did you have a life threatening condition? Keeley Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted June 7, 2000 Report Share Posted June 7, 2000 Joann hi, I have been approved for an open RNY w/tummy tuck here in Fla with another Dr. which I will have if my insurance denies my appeal for surgery with Dr. Rutledge. It took me six monthes to get that approval, waiting was the hardest thing that I had ever done. Now I have to wait 3 months to get surgery here, if I want the tummy tuck, as I have to not smoke for 3 months, am on the patch, and waiting is again hard. But now that I know it is going to happen, it is alitle bit easier. I have to keep my hands busy.

Guest guest Posted June 7, 2000 Report Share Posted June 7, 2000 Hi Robyn. Is the doctor you are seeing in Florida Dr. Norman s in Ft. Lauderdale by any chance?? If so, I happen to know him. He was at a party at my house once a few years ago in honor of a mutual friend. He has a delightful accent and is a very nice man. In fact, I would go to him for surgery except I want it done laparoscopically and he doesn't do that. Good luck and I hope you can get Dr. R too!!!

Guest guest Posted June 8, 2000 Report Share Posted June 8, 2000 Keeley, I am sorry to have misrepresented myself. I have been Approved for WLS, the Dr that I will be going to offers 3 options, open, Lap, and open with Tummy Tuck, the tummy tuck is optional, and I will ahve to pay extra for it. But, and I am rethinking this now, I have never had any surgery before and I don't want to have it again, so my train of thought was to kill two birds with one stone. Unless of course, the insurance company honors my appeal, and then I will be doing the Durham dance. Robynn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 8, 2000 Report Share Posted June 8, 2000 Keeley A doctor friend of mine once said that " There is no rhyme or reason insurances do what they do. " I too was denied by my insurance 2 times. I had the MGB done one month ago and personally paid. It was the best thing I ever did for ME. My insurance claims you must have a life threatening problem before they will cover. Silly isn't it...they will pay after you have thousands of dollars in medical bills instead of using the MGB as a preventative to life threatening illnesses...Good luck to you.
