January 2nd !!! I am so excited and nervous !!

I applied for insurance in PA under Obama’s Affordable Healthcare Act for people with preexisting illness and was approved within 4 weeks. The cost is 283.00 a month, income is not a factor and it is VERY good insurance. One of my preexisting was overweight, also high blood pressure. I had not had insurance coverage in about 4 years. Once I was approved I had a FULL check-up and found I had diabetes. I went to bariatric surgeon and started testing and preparing for weight loss surgery however the insurance co denied my request stating “not covered under the plan” but they will cover any medical cost that you may incur after WLS!! ? . PA (PA fair care)goes with their own insurance co. Many states provide insurance under the Affordable Healthcare Act that WILL cover bariatric surgery. I am grateful that I was able to get health insurance, but disappointed about the WLS. However after much research I decided to go to Mexico for my surgery.
