URGE PEBB TO COVER GASTRIC BYPASS NOW

Send an email urging PEBB to include coverage for gastric bypass surgery and related procedures for morbidly obese patients: [email protected] Here's the latest PEBB newsletter that discusses the public hearings and public input process: http://pebb.das.state.or.us/June%202003%20PEBB.pdf

It is not PEBB that does not cover gastric bypass but the individual insurance companies. I just had surgery from Kaiser Permanente under a PEBB plan. They covered everything.
