Anyone From Massachusetts Use Bcbs For Lap Band Surgery ?



Recommended Posts

I keep having questions about BCBS of Massachusetts, or if people are having the surgery done where I am, but I never see anything. Anyone from MA? Anyone? blush5.gif

Amanda:

I'm from MA. I had my surgery at Norwood Hospital with Dr. Adam Glasgow.

I had BCBS with my first band and Harvard Pilgrim with my revision. Insurances vary by plans instituted at your company. The best thing to do for insurance questions is to call the 800 number on the back of your card.

Good luck!

I am having surgery at Lahey Clinic. So did you have a hard time getting approved?

No, I was approved within days of the center submitting it for approval.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
