Houston Employer Questions

:help: I am in the process of changing jobs and have a question for anyone that possibly works for Chase Bank or Sterling Bank. Do you know if their insurance covers the Lap Band surgery.

    Places that I knew of (national and regional) where most of the group employee health insurance policies did NOT have an exclusion against bariatric surgery ( and no this is NOT a comprehensive lists, but speaks in generalities) :

    JPMorganChase Bank (most of their PPO policies, HMO's are toss ups - note they offer benefits for FT & PT

    • Home Depot (have benefits for FT & PT )
    • Charming Shoppes (Lane Bryant stores - their employees are having it so often now that they can barely wear the LB clothes anymore)
    • Starbucks (benefits for FT & PT )
    • Continental Airlines
    • Methodist Hospital in Houston (offers benefits for FT & PT)

    I used to have a quick list when I worked at the insurance company - but as I think of more, I'll add more names.

    Happy Band Journeys to all
