Default Hi Everyone

Hi Everyone,
What a wonderful site! I am waiting (trying to be patient) for Tricare to approve my surgery. It is so nice to "meet" everyone...and to all of those fellow waiters..I hope your surgery is approved quickly.

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.

Hey, Kim! Welcome!! Please let us know how it goes with Tricare approval.... my daughter-in-law is also Tricare and needs the surgery. She wants to get pregnant, but, due to obesity, is having some problems. A lot of women don't know the effects of obesity on our hormones.... She has just decided to pursue this route and is having some problems with Tricare already. Good luck to you!!!

Kim I hope tricare approves you quickly. I went to m6y PCM and got my referral and within a week had my approval from Tricare. I hope it works quickly for you. I was going to go through the post hospital for the surgery but the wait list is insane so my doc referred me off base to a civilian and I got approval right away now just have to go to the seminar tomorrow and meet with the docs on the 9th.
