Hello I'm new to this but anyways. I am having trouble getting my lapband surgery paid for. I don't have insurance and my husband is self employed and doesn't have insurance eighter. No one wll insure me because of my weight I am to high risk. Does anyone know of insurance that might cover me? Or a possible financing plan or doctor that has in-house financing?? In need of help thanks:sad_smile:

You could try getting medical financing. You will be responsible for paying for your surgery and it will be more expensive than what insurance would be.

here's a name a friend gave me:

www.geapplyonline.com It is a credit card to be used for medical surgeries. It is worth a shot.

I have insurance that I dont qualify to use.

My credit is not good so I am not qualified to get financing....I am sooo down about it. But if I can get a cosigner than I am good. My sister might help me but I hate to ask for someone to do that for me!

Good luck. God Bless!

l have heard that CAPITAL 1 will finance lap band surgery...

Actually the doctor that I am looking at going referred me to them. Here's their number:

The phone number of Capital One is 1-877-559-5050

That is the medical hotline
