I currently have Kaiser insurance in Maryland. I was told that they cover the lap band on a patient by patient basis. I can not get a direct answer from anyone on how to get them to approve the surgery. I am SOOOOO frusterated!!!! Does anyone else have Kaiser? Did they cover the surgery? What steps did you take to get it covered. I have met with a dietician, psychiatrist, and now I do not know what to do from here. PLEASE HELP:(
