Im curious about the best medicaid for La plan for bariatric surgery as well!

I have medicaid, LaHealthcareconnections, but was told by someone there to switch medicaids because they dont accept that one. Forgot to ask for advice on which one. Which one do ya'll have? Looking for easiest requriements and approval. My bmi 44.

Sorry so long! Has anyone gotten surgery in La with medicaid? If so, what plan did you have and were you easily approved? Was it recent? I have medicaid as my secondary (my BCBSLA wont pay!), and I have LaHealthConnections and the only provider for MLA in Louisiana is supposedly Dr. Dominquez in Covington, who doesn't take LaHealthConnections. The receptionist told me that I would have to switch to either United Healthcare, Amerihealth Caritas, or Amerigroup. I'm torn between Amerihealth Caritas and Amerigroup so I'm asking for advice on which one did not reject or give you trouble. Btw, my BMI is 44, so no co-morbidity is needed, but I know about the 6 month of visits and all, which I'm questioning that as well. I've tried different things for weight loss (adipex), but not for 6 months straight, maybe 2, along with my own failed diets. Any of the plans "leignant" on this? Thanks and feel free to email me if would like to share more info. caramelshorty04@yahoo.com
