  1. can anyone guide me as to which was the best anthem plan for lapband? i would like to find someone to talk to at anthem but can't seem to find a phone number...so if you could share which plan you are on or an approximate cost per month, this would be helpful....thanks, sonja
  2. anthem...i just looked this up....which plan do you all use? they have about 12 that come up....so basically what i'm asking is how much is the amount per month that people pay for this coverage which includes bariatric...which is the best plan?
  3. please let me know if you can recommend a good doctor in the northern nj area...thanks.. sonja
  4. can you tell me how to search for a bariatric specialist? for sure, nobody is listed under that, and i would have to call hundreds of surgeons
  5. the insurance i have is bc/bs but apparently i can't find a doctor who is willing to work with the kind that i have....so i have to find another....the dr. i had wanted to get paid more...so he switched....
  6. had the surgery; now the dr. no longer takes my insurance (and frankly, i'm not thrilled with him); so, i'm looking for private insurance to cover the issues i'm having with my lapband (it has already once slipped and it twisted as well) and now, basically i need to find out if there is a leak in it or it slipped again as i am putting weight back on... the prices i am being quoted are like $600 per month....i can't do it...any other suggestions, options, advice? thanks, s
