You're welcome. That was last July 2014. I am not sure if any changes have been made since then. I think you should double check just to be sure. Good luck.

I have been told by a representative at Medicaid that Medicaid NC does not cover VSG. However, they do cover lapband, RNY and DS.

Several items in size 26/28W all New without tags. More to post. Feel free to make an offer. $15. 3Xtop/4X bottom $20. 26W vest/24W bottom. Lot's of stretch to it. $30. 26W $10. 24W

Thanks. I found out it is a state to state thing.

Anyone else here in NC really wanted the VSG and found out it is not covered by Medicaid? I was really set on having a sleeve.

Has anyone had a Lap Band and on dialysis? I would like to know if there are any affects on dialysis patients.

Thanks for the info.

Part of my pre-op requirement is to meet with an exercise physiologist. However, I am on a very tight budget. I am on disability due to kidney failure. The fee for the exercise physiologist is $125.00 for the first visit. Is there anyway I can get around paying this?

I am unable to download and open this attachment.

Thanks for posting this latido. I am on a fixed income due to kidney failure. I was wondering if I could buy anything with my stamps. Thanks to everyone for answering. This was very helpful.

Newbie here just started this process. What are FF Soups?

Thanks for the information. I just started the WLS process. This is very helpful and informative.
