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.

Hi there. Call the number on your card and ask them if you have a benefit for this surgery.

Welcome.

Not sure about the insurance. As said above your best bet is to contact them and ask. Good luck

Our company offers Cigna Health too but I don't use because I'm a military spouse. So I would recommend calling them and just asking if they cover the surgery
