  1. Has anyone been able to use a TIG plan to cover the lap ban
  2. UH is suppose to be a better one at paying, but I work for an individual/small office. I am looking at trying to get an additional plan in place. Does anyone know if that works? Self pay is not an option at this time.
  3. What kind of BCBS policy are you under?
  4. I figured I hit a wall. Weren't you afraid of having something done in mexico?
  5. oh and the policy exclusion states "surgical treatments for obesity and morbid obesity"
  6. co-morbidities, lets see, depression, chronic headaches, Insomnia, RLS. Would those work? Not being sarcastic, just am lost at this point. I did not realize I wanted this so badly.
  7. I have researched the lap-band topic for a year and recently went to a free seminar. I want to move forward, but obesity surgery is excluded on my United Healthcare policy. Is there any hope? Can something be done and where do I start?
