Perfect Surgery Timing

[Revconguy 9]

Well it looks like I lucked out! I went through the 6-month pre-surgery routine and exhaustive testing and had my sleeve surgery on November 28, 2016. They billed the insurance company for $65,000 for the surgery (sleeve + abdominal hernia) and I ended paying about $2,500 +/- for my part. I just received word that my employer is going to another health insurance company effective May 1st. The only real difference in coverage is that the new company DOES NOT cover bariatric surgery.

Couldn't have planned and timed it better if I had to.....

Unfortunately, I don't think the new plan will cover skin removal either... (sigh...)

Now if I can just get over this blasted stall.....

It sounds like it was meant to be!
