Medicare Approval Question

Hi, I just read a topic about Medicare approval being different across the country. I am in the process of getting all the medical approvals and this was not mentioned. Is there anyone living in Florida age 65 and over that has been approved for the sleeve? I will call my doc as soon as they open, but thought I might find someone who has been approved. Thanks.

    I was approved, and i am in Philadelphia surgery on Feb 25th. Its approved on a case to case basis and your age might be a factor also. Hope this helps..

    I did find out that there is not a problem in Florida, I hope everyone finds out good news if they are having the sleeve through Medicare.
