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.  |

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass | Fight, Fight, Fight, with the ins. Don't leave it up to the Doctor's office. Call the insurance over and over, get your policy that states exactly why your denied and if it is medically necassary and etc. you fight. I got mine approved before the Doctors office did. I have previously worked for a M.D. as an office manager so I have experience, but don't leave it up to the Doctor to get it approved. You have to do the footwork. Hang in there.
