I am so upset. Kaiser Peremanente has said that they do not cover lap bands. I am so depressed & upset.

 

This was my chance to loss wieght and now it is gone.

 

Has anyone had Kiaser Permanente and been able to get the lap band done.

Don't limit yourself to what someone else has said or tried to limit you to. You say "This was my chance to lose weight, and now it's gone." nothing is stopping you from losing weight, with or without surgery, in the meantime do what you can and switch insurances. It's more than likely your coverage level and not that they don't do them. Even with Aetna - they state they don't do them to some, for others it's a 6 month wait and for other it's a 3 month, depends on what your plan level is. Keep checking, see if an upgrade is available or just change insurances all together. BCBS is only a 30 day wait, you may want to check into getting them if you REALLY want the surgery.
