  1. I am in the beginning stages of researching Doctors, costs, etc.... I have to unfortunately pay for any type of WLS out of pocket because my BCBS of Tennessee insurance will not cover any type of WLS. (My company has excluded it). I live in Indiana and have been surfing many websites over the last several weeks, but have been unsuccessful in finding any costs for lapband. I am the type of person that would rather have my ducks in a row before sitting through seminars and classes with Dr's before I understand the costs up front. Can anyone please give me a $ cost that has had to pay out of pocket in Indiana? Any help is appreciated.
