Insurance coverage is really difficult to decipher. for example Blue Cross Blue shield will cover it but Blue Cross Blue Shield of Kansas won't. I don't know of an efficient way to even do a search. Most will cover it if certain conditions like BMI are met. Sorry i can't be of more help.

ARE THERE ANY SUPPORT GROUPS IN THE EVENING TIME OR WEEKENDS THAT ARE IN THE JOHNSON, DOUGLAS,WYANDOTTE, OR MIAMI COUNTY AREA?

IVE LOST ALMOST 100 POUNDS BEEN POST OP SINCE 10/15/15 STARTING TO STRUGGLE W/ FOOD AND EMOTIONS.

We are going to be paying for insurance out of our own pocket. Is there a insurance company that pays for WLS or is there a special policy I can buy?

Hi Niccole - I just had my revision surgery at SMMC with Dr. Hoen.  I had my RNY in 2006 and lost 92 lbs, regained up to 60 pds, lost 20 so now my goal is 50 lbs.  Honestly can't believe I am doing this again!!! Kept saying Low Carb is so much easier and you can EAT!  What is your story?

That is who I'm thinking of going to also.  I have lap band right now and it's terrible, I'm hoping to have the DS next year and have been trying to research more on Dr. Bernstein.  Did you end up getting the surgery?
