Band has slipped and now I have no insurance

[tracies 0]

I had my lap band surgery 4 years ago and have gotten to my goal weight. It has become My way of life and can't imagine not having it. Now just recently I went in to get a Asophagram done and my doctor said my band has slipped and it had to be emptied... I was devastated! Now my problem is I don't have insurance. I have to sign up for a blue cross plan and want to know Which one will cover bareatric surgery, can anyone tell me if they have a blue cross plan that is self paid and not through an employer? What is s good blue cross plan?

In my area, none of the ACA health insurance plans have any bariatric coverage. You'll need to go to your state's exchange site and register and then look at the plans available to confirm if this is the same for your state. They will not offer the same plans across the country - you need to check specific to your area.

It is very likely tho that you'll need to pay out of pocket for any bariatric related things.
