Does anyone know of any grants or other ways to pay for the LAP-BAND®®. I work for the state and our Blue Cross Blue Shield does not cover it. My husband keeps encouraging me to search online. He thinks that there is a magical grant place. It really sucks that my insurance won't pay...they came up with this random way of paying for a few people...just does not seem fair. My girlfriend works for the postal service and she has same insurance just better benefits and hers paid....just does not seem fair. I would just take out a loan but unfortunately I have to do a lot of traveling with my job and am going to need a new car before long. I am getting desperate...daydreaming of ways to pay for it....can anyone help....just wish it was not so expensive...just venting I guess ...thanks again...I just had my first grand baby and really want to be here to watch him grow up....need to lose this weight.:thumbup:
