I am hoping to have VSG in 2018. I currently have Medicare Part A coverage. I know that Medicare does cover VSG, however, I'm wondering if having Part A only affects coverage. Has anyone used Medicare Part A only to cover the cost of surgery?

Whenever I asked them if they covered bariatric surgery of any sort, they said no... So, I switched to something else... But that was a while ago, maybe they switched up what they covered since then.

I was once on Medicare but now I'm on another insurance as well.

I think it does only affect coverage but it's been a while since I've contacted them for anything.
