Would there be a Co-Pay for Bariatric Surgery with Medicare and Medicaid?

I was just wondering, I am on disability I live in Michigan and I am interested in getting the Bariatric Surgery done. Only thing is though the place I am looking at going to says you have to have all co-pays or deductibles paid in full prior to the surgery. Does anyone know if there would be a co-pay or deductible from Medicare (Primary) and Medicaid (Secondary)?

I have just medicaid and The only thing I had to pay out of pocket for was my liquid diet kit. For me that was $332 for 3 weeks before surgury and 2 weeks after. What I would do is get a refural from your primary doctor and then work with the surgon. Once My approval came back from medicaid They told me that I would not have any co pays. If i was you I would just try and see you may be lucky and not have to pay anything out of pocket ecept for the liquid diet.

Good luck
