Trust but verify. Some insurance companies are easier to deal with than others. My trust in my surgeons office to be able to deal with my insurance company, cost me a couple months of delays in getting approved (FWIW). BTW my starting BMI was over 60 and it still took me a year to get approval (Cigna).
