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.

Welcome to the board, thank you for joining us.
I have taken the liberty of moving your post from where you first posted, and started a new thread all about yourself, as you will get more notes from others this way.
(((((((((HUGS)))))))) May your journey go well.

welcome! you will find so much info on here. i know of a few people who had this done thru medicaid in NY. well not sure if it was HIP at the time. the best advice i could give is document EVERYTHING. every dr visit, everything discussed in the dr visit. they WILL pay for it if necessary. good luck on your journey.
