Good evening all!

I was recently approved for medicaid and I'm now looking at choosing my managed care plan. I cannot get a clear answer online whether or not VSG is covered by any of them. I have to make phone calls tomorrow, but due to Hurricane Harvey I don't know if they'll be available, so I wanted to reach out and see if any of you have medicaid in Texas that covered your surgery?

I weigh 320, BMI 53, currently and have been obese/morbidly obese for at least 8 years

I have IIH, non-alcoholic fatty liver, and had my gallbladder removed when I was 16

I know I qualify, I just need to know if any of you have had it covered or know which managed care plan will cover it with the proper prerequisite conditions.

TIA!

Hello all! I love the topic so this will be my first post

I will not miss NOT being able to fit my calves into knee high boots, especially the "Wide Calf" ones that zip up half way and then taunt you

I will not miss my daughter asking me why I'm always so tired

I will not miss the shin splints I get walking two city blocks to my job
