Financing???

[besrn 0]

I am a 27 yr old RN. I have been fighting my weight since I was 20. I have a brother who had a lapband in Febuary of 2007 and has had amazing results. 130 lbs in one year!!! I have decided to take this step because I don't want my weight to comprimise my life or my health anymore. My insurance doesn't cover any type of bariatric procedures so I will be self pay. I need a company that will finance this surgery. I was hoping someone would have a few suggestions.

If your doctors office is signed up w/ Allegran they have financing options through local banks in your area. Also Ethicon works w/ National City. Then there are medloanfiance.com, Reliance Financial. I think there is like surgeryloans.com and many others.

Also if you own your home don't forget you can refiance or do a 2nd mortgage (home equity line/loan)

Good Luck and you already have GREAT support.

Also remember that it SHOULD be tax deductible.

I financed mine through Care Credit. Not the cheapest way to borrow money, but we're paying it off pretty aggressively, so it's not so bad.

I am a self-payer and I am financing the surgery via my home equity loan. One of the financing options is to get a surgery loan, which are available through multiple financing companies. One that I found is Plastic Surgery Financing & Cosmetic Surgery Financing Nationwide

Do the lenders mind if you're having the surgery done in Mexico?
