hello to anyone reading this. I am seriously considering the lap band procedure. i've attended 2 seminars on the subject and have a consult with a dr in April. according to my insurance's website, the coverage depends on the individual group, the company i work for has a history of fighting this type of coverage. for those of you who have had to pay out of pocket, what is a rough estimate of the cost? and how easy is it to get a loan for, or finance the procedure? is there anyway to push the insurance company,,,,,,,,,,*reeking of desperation* thanks
