Ciara_Reese2 7 Posted September 27, 2012 Hi, my name is Ciara i am thinking abut getting the sleeve. Live in Indiana I recieve medicaid but am thinking of finding another source of insurance. i need the sleeve because I am overweight and a mother of five who has tried everything to loose weight. i recently joined curves and though I have been eating right and exercising and even eel great about myself i also have gained weight and am sore and hungry all the time for exercising and restrictive diets. i have spent thousands of dollars on gimmicks and programs, i have just come to the conclusion that I need surgical intervention. i know i have a long road ahead of me but at least there is light at the end of the tunnel. 4 gmanbat, JerseyGirl68, ProudGrammy and 1 other reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kimmy*custis 276 Posted September 27, 2012 Welcome Ciara! I can honestly say getting the sleeve has been one of the best decisions I have made. I am 20 lbs from goal in 7 1/2 months and feel fantastic! Best wishes for a speedy approval! 2 JerseyGirl68 and xavtay2 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BigGirlPanties 957 Posted September 27, 2012 Medicaid (in most states) does approve the sleeve as "medically necessary"... and you will be covered 100%... so don't think you need to look for something else; your pcp needs to present it properly...that's the key Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
