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.

Congrats on your decision to have lap band....

You might enjoy reading this website - he is a lap band specialist and has all kinds of information on it including some videos and a couple of books you can get which are excellent! (Dr Terry Simpson, a WLS surgeon for 30 years now!)

Weight loss doctor - Lap-band surgery seminar - Bariatric surgeon in Phoenix Arizona (AZ)
I became very impressed with him when I went to one of his seminars and several nurses who had taken care of his patients, were signing up for WLS!
