Anyone pay cash in California for their surgery? Wondering how much it cost. My insurance declined me even with pcos and a 36.7 bmi

You can appeal their decision and ask for a new review. Call everyday and become a person to them, not just another case. Good luck.

My Dr In NC is now doing the Sleeve for $9998.00 In part because there are many band people who can get them removed under insurance but will not pay for the revision. I would check around at some of the major Bariatric enters in the area.

Some are doing them in out patient facilities that are actually nicer than a Hospital setting

I don't have an answer to your question, but I do hope your Dr's office will pursue peer-to-peer and appeals. I work for insurance and have seen plenty of decisions overturned. It's always worth a shot.

Good luck!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!

      Today was rough...
      I've been experiencing a headache all day today that just won't go away. I'm thinking it's now progressing into a migraine. Does anyone else get headaches from taking vitamin B12? I did some research and learned that usually a lack of B12 causes headaches. But I've noticed when I take it, I have reoccurring headaches. 😫
