Will insurance pay for complications with WLS if you have it done in TJ????

Am a week until my surgery just wondering about this topic.

It depends. I have fepblue and they will not treat a claim for complications any differently based on where the surgery was performed, whether they paid for the surgery, etc. Can you send your company a secure message?

Each policy is different. There are people here who have been told complications aren't covered, but then there are those of us who said they are.

You can also buy a post op complication policy that covers a certain amount for a certain period of time. So if you get a blood clot, stricture, leak, they reimburse you for those.

Thank you for your response. Were you happy you did your surgery? How are you doing?
