Question:
Will Tricare West pay for a stomaphyx?

3 yrs out from gastric bypass having no luck in keeping weight off and feel as though Im starving all the time. I know my stomach has to be stretched or found a way to go back to original size.    — SusaDia (posted on December 11, 2009)

Tricare will pay for any revisions to prior surgeries (bariatric). I'm not real sure what a stomaphyx is but if you have had bariatric surgery they do pay for revisions. They don't pay for the balloon or the duodenal switch though.
