Hi Natasha I am going through Dr. Brett Cohen in Ft. Lauderdale Florida 954-276-8559 ask for Armond Benton. You do have to meet the $700 share of cost before you have surgery and after that it's like you have straight Medicaid. I have an apt in May to meet the surgeon and the nutritionist. I've done everything else and I live in Orlando

Hi, I live right outside of Orlando... So happy to find someone near with detailed info. :-) I also have Medicaid Share of Cost and was searching for a surgeon who would accept it. If you have went already, do you mind sharing the requirements and approval procedure. Thanks!

Hi! ....you and I both actualky have the same question and Medicaid Share of Cost...So do you mind sharing your findings of Surgeon who accept share of cost please, as well as the approval process. I will be doing a little research as well now that I see there is a possibility that share of cost is accepted. I was stressing on how to go about appealing share of cost, in efforts to get full medicaid... but it is comfort in knowing share of cost may be accepted as well. Thanks in advance for your help.

Hello Everyone, 

I'm new on here...I have a PPO Insurance through my Job. They sent the Pre- Approval request to the Insurance.  I was sad because they said the terms changed Jan 2015 & they now require a 6month total with the Nutristonist. I will have all 6visits with the Nutristonist on June 14. I called Dr Gonzalez assistant and she told me the Dr doesn't accept Medicaid Share of Cost.  Does anybody know of any Bariatric Dr that accepts Share of Cost? It sounds like I'm going to need a new Dr...Has anybody experience this? I appreciate all of you.

Love Always, 

Mrs Lenny
