  1. Super Stressed about Self-Pay and Medicare. Help Please.

    Margie replied to FreeToBeMe's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
    Thanks for everyone's input. It looks as if Medicare still will not pay. Rats.. This is the surgery my doctor recommends, but I can't pay the cost. I have talked with people who have had it done it Mexico, but I am too high risk. I am going to try and talk with someone in Medicare's utilization review and see what the status is on getting it approved. Problem is nothing moves quickly when it somes to these processes.

    Did anyone find out if Medicare would pay for the surgery?
