I spoke with kaiser in seattle. it took hem three weeks to return the initial email in which she suggested I gain 40 pounds before calling back. She did not respond to any additional emails demonstratingg i met the self pay qualifications.

i considered complaining but got busy. At a coctail party in seattle we ran into a member of the board.. I shared my experience with her. She was horrified. I received a call the next weekday offering to fast pace me through the program and elected not to do so. I have a short tollerance for lazy and if that is how their intake staff are...gad can you imagine the rest of them. One should never have to speak to a board member about an issue just to get a call back.

Hopefully the kaiser you are dealing with is more on the ball.

I was sleeved thru Kaiser Southern CA. My PCP sent a referral to Bariactric Dept and then the process was started. Had an orientation then started 12 weeks of classes. Had to attend a support group and the NUT appt and physc appt.

There is another girl on her I have talked to and I think she is in Fontana. I don't think she has to do the 12 week class... But good luck! So far I have had a great experience through Kaiser. Had to wait a little in the begining but since things have started to progress they have been on it!

Kaiser West Los Angeles!!!! March 23rd I spoke with my Primary, April started Options and was sleeved on Septemeber 6th! 6 months!!!! Kaiser is AMAZING! All appointments and Labs are ordered for you! You just show up where they say to go. My Doc was amazing also. Every Single Person down to the the people cleaning your hospital room are Awesome!!! This surgery was the reason I came back to Kaiser, I attempted to first go thru Aetna last year and never even got in for a consult! CRAZY!!!!

Ya the time line is long but I think in the end you will be glad. They really want to prepare you to succeed post op. The classes do not cost. So far I have only had to pay my co- pay to see my pcp and my co-pay for the consult with the PA. All the labs and the other things have been no cost. Make sure to check you benefits they can be different. If u signed up at kp.org they will have an explanation of them or you can call member services. Oh and I have a 500$ inpatient stay co-pay for when I have the actual surgery...
