Late June sleever with insurance change in July



Recommended Posts

Hi all - i have an insurance-covered VSG scheduled for 6/28 and was curious if anyone had been in the same boat as me. I switched jobs a few weeks ago and was approved under my former job insurance which is active until 6/30. I have new insurance that kicks in on July 1 (after my surgery date). I was curious if anyone had experienced this across two insurances. I’m more concerned how the post-op care is covered or if it would be specifically excluded on my newer policy - especially in any worst case scenario with any post surgical complications etc. Certainly expect to go home the next day, but of course you never know! My new insurance does cover Bariatric, but only when employed by the company for 12 months and onward.

Would love to hear others’ experiences here! Thanks in advance.

I’m in the same exact situation

my surgery date is 6/29 and my insurance ends 6/30 or that’s the last day I’m covered under insurance for previous employer

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
