Guest guest Posted June 16, 2000 Report Share Posted June 16, 2000 Is there anyone out there that has BCBS of Arkansas ? My request has been in for over a week and I got a letter requesting some more info, like how long I have been " morbidly " obese and what was the date and weight I became so. Is this a good sign or are they blowing. I have always been military and do not understand a lot of insurance lingo. I know I have PPO and that DrR is in Network and so is Durham Regional, is this a good thing for me? Another thing that I am not sure of is my handbook says they cover Gastric Bypass for 50% up to $4000, but then it tells me in another place that anything/anybody in network is 80% for total.If my insurance only pays 50% or 80% whichever, do I have to pay the remaining 50 or 30% up front? I know I sound like a total idiot, but this whole insurance thing is going to cause me to have a nervous breakdown. For the first time in more than 20 years I have hope of saving and reclaiming my life, and I hate that there is a group of people who do not know me or anything about what my life has been like, going to make a life or death decision for me. From what I read from each of you this surgery is turning a lot of you into insurance experts. If anyone has had or is having dealings with BCBS of Arkansas, please get in touch and let me know your experience.
