Jacqueline thanks!!!! I'm feeling better about it now. I was getting concerned because I saw that Abington ad Eistein were "Bariatric Centers of Excellence" and wonder why Barix is not considering they are solely a Bariatric Center. I also noticed the procedure costs more at hospital based facilities...it's covered dr me so cost is not a concern but its about a 5-7 thousand dollar difference. Has me thinking???

Hi Roserie!!!!! I actually live in Philly but my job is in Trenton so it's easier for me to get to Barix for pre and post op appointments. Do you have a date yet?

Good for you 2boys!!!!! Thanks for the information. That is a lot of testing in one day but at least you didn't have to run all over the place to get those things done.

I think it's unfortunate that people have to return to a job before they are ready. Your body needs to heal. I've heard horror stories of folks having complications because they pushed themselves

I'm still waiting tomorrow will be a week! Ugh

I just wish they would approve it already! Tomorrow will be a week!!!! Still waiting

Make sure you wear the cpap very night. It's weird at first but you get yes to it. Glad to have found someone else using Marymore I was beginning to get worried! Insurance said I should know by Friday!

Thanks Jojo828 let me know when you get a date! I'm still waiting for insurance approval but its been submitted!

Thanks Jojo928 I was beginning to get nervous that not a soul in here used him. I did some research last year. Thanks for the info. I'm still waiting on insurance approval. Good luck with getting your date!

I'm a single mom of a 3 year old. I'm nervous about surgery but want to be here for him in the long run. His father is very support of my decision and since I don't have any family in the area he will take care of me post op.

I got the email but the link doesn't work

Mine is nj too hope it's that quick

Congrats miss lady!!!!!! I called BCBS said they don't have anything. I'm going to check with them again today to see if its in their system and then call insurance coordinator

They said they didn't have anything. I'm going to cal BCBS today to see if they at least have the paperwork

Wcn1970 is right take the time you need!

I'm taking two weeks sick and then disability for 3 weeks. I work for the state so I have to use all of my sick time before disability kicks in.

Please send an email to luvlvnlyfe5@yahoo.com thanks!

Thanks! I called today but they said they didn't have anything but that once received my doctor would have an answer in 5 business days.

I'm interested in this answer as well!

Hello all HELP!!!!! I am pre op papers submitted to insurance BCBS of New Jersey yesterday. I selected Dr Marymore of Barix but wondered if anyone used him or the Barix facility and what you thought. I think I'm getting nervous and just want to make sure I have a great surgeon.
