My insurance policy changed this year...went from 80/20 coverage to only 50/50 and only covering up to $10,000. The good part, they no longer have a cap on 1 lifetime procedure; which will be good if revision can not be done in one surgery. How much did your revision cost? With or without Insurance

Thanks

I was self pay for my revision, insurance had a total exclusion on any WLS....so I paid $18K for my revision, and I was able to have it all done in one procedure....it was 3 hour procedure, but he was able to do it....

Thanks!! I go to see my lapband surgeon tomorrow to discussion revision.

I just had my revision in November, my insurance is also 80/20 and a out of pocket max of $5000. So I had to pay the $5000 for my revision. I took out a medical loan and it was well worth the money, I cant see myself back at 309 lbs again if I can help it. :wub:

Thanks Nikimac and I know how you feel. My highest weight was 302 and then 278 when I had lapband. I managed to get to 189 but now I'm climbing back up. I'm toggling between 210-213
