anyone out there with over 4 years w/lap?

Just want to know if anyone is a long termer with the lap band. And now with the new code number for insurance, do you think we may have a chance for coverage?

    I can't help you with the 4 yr thing - but unless your employer specifically excludes or your policy specifically excludes, then you have a chance for coverage.

    I was denied, appealed, denied again and then submitted to the State Insurance Board for an Independent Medical Review.

    The Review Board over-turned the insurance denial... It can be done.

    It isn't a QUICK process, but it can be done.

    PM me with your e-mail address and I will forward my appeal letters.

    Good Luck!!

    :]
