I also have UHC. I will be submitting my pre-certification after my 2nd opinion with Dr. Bitan on Friday. I was recommended for a two level at L3-L4 and L4-L5 by Dr Zeegers last week. I am going to submit both next week(assuming they are in agreement) and cross my fingers (toes, etc..). I will post how that goes and am interested to see how you guys that
also have UHC fare. So far, no one I know with UHC has been approved. At this point, I am assuming I will be paying for it so expect to be having the surgery in Munich in the fall.
