Quick question, as of recently, has anyone had VSG or any WLS using 1199? I’m just curious as to whether I’ll be approved or not.

I just really need some type of hope that I’m not going to a dead end journey

1199 is an insurance I have through my union at my job

I used to work in a company that offered that insurance to the union employees. I do not think they cover WLS of any kind but it is best to call them to make sure since plans do change from year to year so it may be different now.

I was thinking that but I saw in another forum people got wls through 1199 but it was years ago so I was hoping something within the last year or so maybe got lucky
