Hi Friends,

I was wondering if anyone has had an experience with Kaiser switching band to bypass? If so Id love to hear your story. I had a band put in self pay in 09 because I was not fat enough for Kaiser to pay for it. Now they will cover taking it out and giving me the bypass but I have the 6 months worth of hoops to jump through. So frustrating to have to wait so long even though I am thrilled that at least Im covered now because my bmi is even lower. Hate insurance...anyone else with Kaiser?

Hi I have to do the same with blue Cross but its the hospital not the insurance that has the 6 month policy. I started early April and they scheduled appointments until August 13th. I have to get the band out and getting the bypass as well maybe sometime in aug

Hope time goes by fast for you and good luck
