aquanet 0 Posted December 27, 2008 Hello everyone, I recently got Blue Shield of CA insurance and I wanted to know if anyone else here was able to get the procedure done with the insurance? What is the process to find out if I would be approved, what steps do I need to take? Any information is greatly appreciated, thanks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
luckyjyn 0 Posted December 27, 2008 Hi, I also have BCBS of CA and they do cover lapband. You need to find the bariatric surgeon that you plan to use and go to a seminar - usually the insurance coordinator at the surgeons office will apply for your approval and walk you thru each step that BCBS requires of you. Good Luck! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
