Need insurance that covers banding



Recommended Posts

Does anyone know where I can work part time that has insurance that covers lapband that I can get soon after hire? I have insurance but it is horrible. It only covers 50% or up to 5,000.00 lifetime after my deductible. I had breast reduction and it covered it all after my deductible. I think this is decrimation toward fat people, some lawyer should sue insurance companies. If they cover other surgerys 100% should be totally covered if it is nessary to improve your health.

Sounds like you have Humana employee insurance. Thats what I have and it sucks - I'm doing the band anyways. I making them pay the $5000. anyways - their coverage I think is made to keep you from doing it. My surgery is tomorrow. - best of luck to you.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
