I am so excited. Had my first office visit today and found out my insurance BC/BS will pay for most of the procedure if they approve me. Need to do a 3 month diet first.

This is also the first time I post here. Before making my decision to choose lapband I read a lot of ur threads here and it helped me tremendously. So thank you guys. I look forward to reading more posts and keeping u posted of my procedure here.:wink:

Hey cent,

I was told that I need to call my insurance to find out how much I am going to pay. I went today to see the surgeon, however they still have not given me a date. He did say around the 3rd week of Dec. I think I will need to pay 20%. I will let u know when I find out.
