also, my dr called today. my insurance will pick up a portion of the surgery due to the umibical hernia the doctor could feel. almost everyone i know that has had this surgery had a hernia. your insurance should pay to have that repaired and should pick up a portion of the hospital and dr cost. by the way, my insurance excludes any weight loss surgery. i can easily come up $5000 better than the $14,000.

i am in hr and our company is self funded...any appeals go to insurance company. we never see that and no one else should espically due to hippa. our insurance won't cover the lap band, but all of my pre test have been covered due to hypertension, hernia, etc...
