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.

I have no experience with them. My advice don't be afraid to call them! Usually insurance companies are good about tell you all their requirements. You need to take tot he surgeons office too, as they might require a bit more or less depending on the circumstances.

My secondary insurance company was great for information, they told me where to go to look at the provider information for requirements so I could have the same thing the providers did.
