Hi, I am new at this so here goes.

 

I have just started taking Metformin about 3 months ago.

 

I have Type 2 Diabeties, High BLood Presser,High Colesterol and am 68 pounds over weight and 4'11" tall.

 

I am trying to find out if Lap Band surgery will be approved by TRICare?

 

What is the process to go forward. I have a surgeon and the Diabetic Nutritionist said that I should prusue this as more and more type 2's are chosing this as thier treatment.

 

Thanks,:)

Hello, I used TRICARE. See your tricare office rep and get the forms and fill them out. send copies of the bill. They practically paid for all of mine except 1700 dollars. I paid 7K up front, had my surgery and then submitted my paperwork. Good luck, its a fabulous journey and one that helps one loose the #s.
