So I have had my band for 7 yrs with no issues! I have lost over 100lbs. My band slipped around christmas time and I JUST now got Humana to agree to pay to REMOVE the band, but if I want it replaced, I will have to pay for that, which is fine. My worry is this...what about if this happens again? What about future complications? I know they are rare but I was going to have to pay $18k to remove this band if Humana didn't agree to pay it. Anyone else ever had complications without ins paying to fix it? What are my options?
