Hi I was 300 lbs and I've gotten down to 160lbs and I'm still losing weight. II've read that a panniculectomy is covered by healthcare if you had weight loss surgery, but not if you lost weight with diet and exercise...is this true? I've lost my weight with 3 rounds of dr prescribed and supervised Hcg diet. If it can be covered by insurance because of medical necessity, what does this mean? what do I need? from surgeon or family dr? Thank you sooooo much for taking the time to read all of this!
