Self Pay Questions!

Soooo...the school system that I work in has chosen not to include WLS in our policy through United Healthcare. Which in turn means...SELF PAY :angry:

Has anyone in here had a sleeve done in Louisiana or the USA and had to self pay?

I am not interested in going out of the country to have this surgery...as my mother is in the medical profession and would hear nothing of the sort...not that I wanted to either.

Any help or information would be greatly appreciated!
