  1. I'm new to this site but I've been reading as much as I can in hopes of finding the answer to my question without having to bother anyone...I currently have UHC but was told that the Lap Band is an exclusion to my plan. I'm wondering if it would be a wise move to drop my company's insurance and get private insurance that will cover the surgery. Any suggestions? Does anyone know of any private insurance companies that would cover the surgery? Any help you could give me would be sooooo appreciated!
