My insurance is asking me for proof that my initial surgery was medically necessary under their current criteria for WLS. I had my 1st surgery in Mexico 13 years ago without insurance. I don't have my surgical records. I have contacted my surgeon but I don't know if he keeps records for over 13 years. The family doctor I was seeing at the time here in the US has moved and he is proving hard to find so I don't have my medical records which could show my weight and weight loss attempts during that time.
I will continue to try to get the information they are asking for but in the meantime any advise would be great! What if I can't find it? Thank you.
