Exclamation Obesity Law Anyone?????

I'm looking for those of you out there that used Obesity Law or even just a lawyer period to fight an insurance denial. What was your experience like? How fast or slow was the process? What were the costs? Any other helpful details you're willing to share. I have BSBC of IL PPO. And they have denied me because the dr's notes are not detailed enough. Never mind the fact I have enough medical history as proof that I need and would really benefit from surgery. I've been in this process since late December/January. Enough is enough already! Again any input is greatly appreciated.

~Nikki

Re: Obesity Law Anyone?????

I wish I could help you but I didn't even know there was an "obesity law" or that it was a specialty.
