Ok, So I'm back.....was supposed to have surgery earlier this year but had to postpone due to my own indecision as well as some serious family issues.

BUT.........I'm back and certain that this is what I want to do.

Now just waiting for my surgeons office to call me back and confirm what I need to do to get the ball rolling on a surgery date. I am not sure if I will have to re-do my psych eval or anything yet...let's hope not!

My out of pocket is going to be around 1000.00, I am wondering if I will have to pay that up front or if they will bill me!

Welcome back and you'll be just fine . Try having your out of pocket be about $13,000.

Ok, they called....my insurance pays 90% but my maximum out of pocket is 1000.00 and the hospital will set up payments if needed. SWEET!

Now I just wait to see if there is anything I need to re-do or if they can resumbit my stuff as is. I was scheduled to be banded in February...hasn't been THAT long but we shall see! :-)

Most surgeons want blood tests and surgery clearance within 30 days so you may have to do some stuff.

Just found out I have to re-do my psych eval and nutritional eval. Already scheduled the psych for tomorrow and nutritional will be next week! sweet! :-)
