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.

Default Surgeon Visit
Well I went to my surgeon today, and am still waiting. The med history from my family Doc hadn't reached them yet.
Do have a big worry now though. He told me I had to have been at a high enough BMI for the last 5 yrs. Problem may be that about 10-12 years aga I went thru a tramatic divorce, and lost about 100 lbs from stress, (now keep in mind, I had been overweight all my life up until that point,) and now that I have gained it all back, I may have done so in the past 4 yrs, not five. Now WHERE is the justice in that??? I guess I will have to just play the waiting game, but either way it looks like it won't be until at least January before I will be able to have surgery, because I have to go thru the six months supervised thing with my family Doc. UGH, UGH, and somemore UGH.
