Well lots going on. Found out that First Care, my insurance now, and BCBS, second insurance offered by my empl. will NOT cover this unless hell freezes over.
I went to a seminar given by Dr. David Hall, here in Lubbock. Your right lots of info there. He has been doing Wt loss surgery for about 28 years but only doing lap bands for about 3 now.
I have been looking for individual insurance pol. and dont know how to judge them. Most come out and say they will not cover this. But a number say they will. Has anyone heard of
TeamCorp.com/ACI? They say they have been around for 27 years. They offer medical, dental, glasses ect. They told me that 1. If I take their insurance and wait a year I will be covered 100%. If I choose to do it now, they will neg. the best deal for me with the Dr. and hosp. and will then work out the best payment plan that I can afford.
About 200/month for this ins.
Not giving up yet.
