Called insurance company...

Nov 04, 2012

So I called my insurance company & they do still cover WLS.  Thank goodness.  The girl didn't know if they covered revisions, but I did make sure to ask her if there was a one time only exclusion, since I read on here that some insurances will only pay for 1 WLS in a lifetime.  No such exclusion for that either.  So that's promising.  Now I just need to contact my surgeon & go in & talk to him about a revision.  I'm sure that he's done revisions, but I'm still nervous about going in & talking to him about it.  I guess right now I'm sort of scared to go in & find out I don't have a chance of getting another WLS, but I know I'll never find out I CAN if I don't at least go in & talk to him about it.  I also wonder how many people on here change surgeons when they get a revision.  I would like to have a surgeon a little closer to home.  Plus if I could get it done by a surgeon in the same town where I go to school then I could just pop in & see them if there's a problem.  Maybe I'll make some calls tomorrow to some surgeon's in that town.....
