military Military spouses/ Fort Campbel Sleeve Surgery

[MGLAW142 10]

I just wanted to let the military spouse around me know that Fort Campbell has a bariatrics clinic and they do offer the Vertical Sleeve and everything is paid for by tricare. I went in on the 16th to my doctors appointment and within two days was approved by tricare. I also have my first appointment with general surgery on the 7th of August. So for everyone that was not sure if tricare paid for the sleeve or if it is offered I know Ft. Campbell does do it. I just has to have my PCM send in a referral and that was it. Hope this helps!

Hi! I am at Campbell and just started my journey to surgery. I was really hoping that the sleeve was done on post because it is what I want. Are you still at Campbell? How long did the Process take from the time your pick submitted the referral?
