Linhopp 0 Posted March 30, 2006 Has anyone had Blue Cross/Blue Shield of North Carolina approve their claim? Gastric Bypass is covered and when I called insurance co I was told it may be covered, but Weight Loss Surgeon says they do not pay for lap band. Surgery is scheduled for April 21st and I will be self pay but hoping for a last minute coverage miracle...lol. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
