Self pay - reiumbursed on appeal

I am self paying for my lap band while also trying to appeal for payment through my insurance (Southcare/Healthcare Preferred).

Just wondering if there are any others out there who have successfully been reimbursed after self paying.

Thanks for any info!

    Not yet, but I'm doing the same thing you are. Be sure to keep us updated on how it goes.

    Muriel, you might want to start a new thread in the General Discussion area to ask questions about the surgery, or even just read through lots of old threads for information. You'll get lots of answers but probably not here in the Insurance section. :)
