Any supplemental insurance

Background....

I am a teacher in Missouri and not a single insurance plan covers anything dealing with bariatric surgery. Does anyone know of any supplemental insurance I could get that would cover it. I tried to finance but couldn't.

Any info would be great. thanks

I had a similar situation with Tennessee, but unfortunately none were available. I had to save for a while, but the clinic I went to offered a discount if you financed through CareCredit with them, so that may be an option.

Also with self-pay, there's fewer hoops to jump through leading up to scheduling a surgery. That being said, i would recommend lining up some counseling along the way if you do go the self-pay route.

Good luck! Hoping someone has some better news than I do.
