  4. Hi, this is my first post:) My employer is a health insurance company that started covering vsg for employees only. Upon completion of a 6 month nutrition program participants can get the surgery covered. I finally decided to join the program and to my surprise there is a waiting list of over 150 people now. The program will only allow 10 people to join per month so i could potentially be waiting a year or longer to even start the program. Locally vsg would cost me $15K selfpay. My husbands insurance is Anthem BCBS (of which i am not covered). Tomorrow i will call and see if bariatric is covered. Open enrollment is soon so if so i will get coverage depending on if i have a waiting period after new enrollment. My last option is Mexico. Can anyone weighin on their experience with Belite, Alighterme, etc. Thx!
