  1. P.S. does anyone know of a doctor in Cali for self pay? And how much? Financing?? Info???
  2. Update!!! Never trust your doctor's for insurance verification!!! I finally got a copy of my 94 page policy and it clearly says that my insurance does not cover lap band!! They got me to do things for 7 months and billed my insurance for actions that were clearly not needed!! Scam!!!! Back to yo yo dieting for me!!! Sad day!!
  3. Yes it is. Perhaps it's a blessing in disguise!
  4. If that is the case then I am thoroughly disappointed in 1-800-get-thin!!! I have done everything they asked of me for 7 months!! I feel destroyed over this!! I will know more after reviewing my policy today!
  5. Thanks for the help! My insurance is through my husbands work and I know a lady there got one done through her insurance. Just saying... I am hoping this will be resolved!!
  6. I'm not really sure...apparently they said my insurance does not cover the surgery. However, from day one I was told I would be fine with a comorbility. (sleep apnea). Now I don't understand what has changed or who to talk to!! My doc's office needs me to get my summarydescription plan to them so they can find the loop hole! Hmmmm! I don't know!!
  7. So upset I just found out I was denied!!! Going to try to appeal but wondering if I'm wasting my time?!?
