spud.mama 7 Posted June 30, 2010 My BFF is 300lbs, 5'5", has had back and knee surgery, has diabetes, and everything else! She needs LBS!!! I had it last year and she just has ins issues! Finally her ins will pay $20,000! But we can't find anyone close that will do it for that!! She has bc/bs. We live in Colorado. Can anyone help with any advise or where ins would cover at that price???????? She cannot afford self pay. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

She can go to Lap Band Surgery in Denver Colorado | Lap Band Surgeon in Denver | Gastric Band Surgery Denver | Bariatric Surgery. They are in Aurora (I believe) and the cost is only $9,950.00. Hope this helps, I am still searching to get the surgery. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
