Guest guest Posted May 31, 2000 Report Share Posted May 31, 2000 Has anyone dealt with or know anything about BC/BS of Arkansas ? I have a new policy with them (starts today) and on the front page of my paperwork from them it says they do pay Gastric Bypass Surgery, does anyone know about the coverage for MGB ? I am trying to find out if I need to get my guns cocked for a fight. I am determined to have this surgery, even if it means fighting the insurance company night and day. If you have any info I would appreciate it. I have heard that if a company covers GBS they are more likely to cover MGB, is this true?

They are trying to say this is a new procedure and experimental eventhough they have payed for others in this state. All done by Dr. Rutledge. The fight is not over yet, I'll let you know what happens. My big question in that this procedure should be under the outpatient procedure now. In Michigan you do not have to precert a 23 hour stay. How does Arkansas BCBS read.
