Does anyone have UPMC insurance?

Looking for some info here please.:help:

I had heard at the one seminar that I went to in

November that UPMC fully covers Lap Band surgery.

So, I was just wondering if anyone out there has

that insurance.

Also, does anyone have AFLAC? Would the time

you are off for the surgery qualify you for

short term disability benefits?:)

Just curious. Thanks for all your input!
