Sai 785 Posted October 28, 2016 If you're located near Dallas. Have you tried Kim's Bariatric? They did all the paperwork for me, an on appeal, my revision was approved. I didn't have any health issues except high blood pressure. My insurance is BCBS of Texas too. 1 KCgirl061 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bufflehead 6,358 Posted October 28, 2016 Many people with bariatric surgery exclusions save their money and go to Mexico as self-pay for the surgery. There is a whole forum here for it. You can get a package deal for $5K or less. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

skinnytiff 49 Posted October 31, 2016 Unfortantly an exclusion is an exclusion. Insurance wont pay for it if theres an exclusion. Maybe you can find a good cash price. Where are you located?
