Companies that cover WLS



Recommended Posts

Where did/do you work that covers WLS?

I know Home Depot, Starbucks, US Bank and FedEx cover it (from what I have heard- please correct me)... know of any others?

I am asking because I think its important to make this available to people, some people consider WLS like 26k bonus because they don't have to pay out of pocket. I have done some googling but can't find much on the subject of the names of companies.

I wish more companies would cover! I posted this in the "post" forum so that we know who covers for sure.

I work for a Health System in NJ...as long as I used our Drs and had procedure at our hospital it was 100% covered. thankfully!!!! The only thing I paid was a few co pays at specialists offices. They suck the life out of me every day...so it is only fair they pay to give me my life back ;)

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
