What kind of medical clearance do you have to get from your doctor at home before you come there for surgery?

I'm new to this whole process. I signed up for my seminar this past Thursday and was all excited. Then on Friday I decided I would call my insurance and see what my coverage was. Turns out it's not covered at all. Total let down. I'm only 24 and weigh 364 so it took a lot of courage to even make the appointment. I carry my weight we'll and am completely happy in my life but I want to get healthy. A lot of diseases run in my family and I know I'm headed down that road if I don't change something. What are my options now? I see that it's cheaper to go to Mexico but how do you make that decision? When you say that out loud it raises an eye brow.

I have the best insurance my employer offers. As for being on my mothers insurance that's not an option. I'm married and I can't get on my husbands. If I didn't work i guess Obama care could possibly be an option but I'm not sure if he makes to much. Plus I really don't want to quit my job and I don't see me getting a new one anytime soon.

No I hadn't thought about changing insurances. Not sure where to start with that. My current insurance is through my employer. Ive lost 40 lbs this year and gained 20 back because I quit watching what I ate and going to the gym. I went to a weight watchers meeting once but didn't like the crowd. I used my fitness pal.
