    I have BCBS of Mass. and they seem very receptive to the lap-band surgery. When I called to ask, the faxed me their policy with their specific guidelines, i.e. BMI's, evidence of failed weight control programs, past nutritional counseling, co-morbidities. I meet all their requirements and we just applied. My doctor's insurance person thought we shouldn't have any problems.

    Thanks! I'm new to this site to learn about lap-banding. Now I know this is a political commentary site, with some very ignorant people. I won't need to come back here again.
