shortsoprano72 got a reaction from clerkstar841998 in Can't Afford Surgery or an Insurance Company To Pay
Hello, Everyone
I'd gotten so depressed because I can't afford to pay for WLS nor either an Insurance Company in my state that covers it. I decided to hire and Nutritionist/Personal Trainer, at a price I can afford. I've cut out sugar and carbs, and as a result, I've lost 12 pounds, in six days!!! I pray that I will have success in trying to lose weight. I pray that everyone reaches their goals!!!!! I want to lose a total of 115 pounds!!! Please share your thoughts.

My insurance wouldn't pay (and I weighed over 400lbs!). I did self pay in Mexico for $4200. total except travel. I did my research and found a wonderful, reputable company. My doctor is not only certified in Mexico, but also certified on the American Board of Surgeons! That cost would probably be similar to any copay you have to pay in the US.

I had the same issue. That is why I am headed to Mexico. My surgery is Monday.

@@shortsoprano72, I will pray for you.
You would think in this day and age more insurers would see the benefits of paying for the surgery(long term). They will definitely save money.
I'm sure it's frustrating. Best wishes

Thanks, LadyWarren!!!
I have been trying to find an Insurance that covers the surgery. I don't know if it's because of the state I live in or what.

You should check this out really well, since your husband is still covered his insurance, his insurance would be primary and your insurance would be secondary. The general rule of thumb is they go by what the primary insurance covers. You should look into this before your husband starts the process.

My insurance doesn't cover bariatric surgery in any shape or form. I decided to do self pay in Mexico (way, way, way, way cheaper). I had my surgery on Oct 22, 2015 and had a fantastic experience.

My insurance also refused to cover WLS- I am also self-employed and pay for a private policy. 20K on sleeve surgery and 40k0ish on plastics, and while I could have bought a luxury car or a small house with that, it was more than worth it in the long run. I also used a credit card, then paid it off, so I could accumulate a whole ton of points in the process, haha.

My insurance does not cover WLS in any way shape or form for any reason. Being self employed I have to get an individual policy and my state opted out of WLS coverage under the ACA. No option for me except self pay. Spent all my savings, that had been ear marked for a new truck (and a bit on a cc) and got it done anyways. Still drive a 17 year old rust bucket but have no buyers remorse. Best money ever spent.

I work for an insurance company and unfortunately this isn't something that they will budge on. If you have insurance through your employer, the insurance company will sit down with the employer and go over what they do and what they don't want to cover. The insurance can't make an exception. I'm sorry to hear this is happening though. I always feel terrible when I get these calls while im working
