OK. BCBS will start covering WLS starting September 2010. You will find the details on ERS website. In short, you will have to pay $5000 deductible and 20% co-insurance. I am not clear on all the requirements because they wrote it kind of funny! I have started what we (dr. and I ) think the requirement are and hopefully I can submitted everything on September 2nd. It looks like even with insurance I will have to pay $8,000 out of my pocket. WOW! :thumbup:
