Default Hello from the Northwest!

Hello Everyone, I am new to this site, live in Seattle and have a surgery date set for December 28th. I have a "hair trigger" when it comes to insurance companies and am very happy to share all I have learned about defeating them.

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.

Thanks Decker, It's great having seasoned veterans around as well as folks just going though it. One can give you tried and true solutions and the other helps you not get to nervous about surgery. K
