dharriott 37 Posted February 4, 2014 TammieO.. You will have to call your insurance company to see if your particular plan covers it. The additional health issues do play a factor in approval but finding out if your policy covers wls is your next step. Good luck! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TammieO 2 Posted February 4, 2014 They do in face cover it. I called and asked. 1 dharriott reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
