:sad:Hello Everyone, I have Regence Blue Cross Blue Shield of Oregon and they do not pay for this procedure, should I change insurances, and if so, any suggestions?? Is is a complicated long process for insurance to pay??

Any info is much appreciated!! THanks!!

I had aetna and they wouldnt pay for it either it was excluded from the policy (bariatric surgery) so i decided to switch companies i went to personal choice standard option plan i got the insurance on july 1st and got approved july 8th it was fast..i was banded 9/8 all i had to pay was 1,300 out of pocket which is better than 17,000 so do some research and see what company is better for u

I have Aetna through Comcast. My husbands last insurance was also Aetna and they wouldn't pay for it either. It's the employer that says yes or no to the plan.

Comcast is almost like Microsoft they pay for everything. I have $880.00 out of pocket to pay for my surgery.
