Discouraged

So I found out that my husband's Anthem BCBS PPO Blue Access excludes bariatric surgery. I'm so broke hearted! I know we cannot afford to do this on our own. The office director at my Bariatric surgeon said that there was no way around it. Anyone have any suggestions? I live in Indiana...

    Good suggestion about the local hospitals here! I hadn't thought of that! I just emailed a friend who is a RN, and she's going to check out some thing for me. I'm really nervous about leaving the country for the procedure. Plus my regular doctor would give me a lot of grief about it.

    FYI when you self pay for the surgery there is no supervised diet requirement. You just select your date and go from there.

    Good luck to you!
