insurance is dropping bariatric coverage - what's that mean for my fills?

[Guest BikiniBeachy]

yesterday the HR lady emailed everyone saying our insurance will drop bariatric coverage in 09. Thank goodness I just had

My surgery.

Is there some wonderful clause that will cover fills for me once they drop it? Does insurance include fills under bariatric coverage ? Anyone have any clue cause I don't.

Mine sent me a letter soon after surgery saying that they would cover 6 fills for the year. I would think that they would continue to cover those whom they have already cover but I would call them and find out for sure.
