Okay, got my notice of statement the hospital is sending to the insurance company... Mind you I only spent one night in the hospital and the bill totalled out at $39K.

That is about $10k more than I thought. Thank goodness for insurance.

Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.
