Dr Lena Katian, Bariatric Head Surgeon does accept Medicare with no problem

US Bariatric in Ft Lauderdale, Orlando (Celebration) and soon in St Augustine are COEs, but the docs are opted out of Medicare. So patients would have to pay the surgeon's fee, but the hospital and anesthesia are covered by Medicare at the 80% of u&c.

Also, US Bariatric Orlando accepts UHC Medicaid.

HTH.

i know this was written over a year ago but as of today that information about US Bariactric's accepting UHC Medicaid is incorrect...they do not I called

 Not sure about the others - but the Dr in Orlando (celebration) is accepting medicare now.  He also accepts medicaid - but ONLY as a secondary to medicare.  His name is Dr. Kim - their website is: http://www.floridabariatric.com/bariatric-surgery-informatio n/questions-and-answers and he is AWESOME!  
GL to all

I just called Dr. Kim and the office personnel just told me that they DO NOT accept Medicaid, nor is he willing to help sponsor or see someone that can't pay or that doesn't have insurance.  SAD to see that a well known DR. can't step up and at least help out.

My 2 friends had surgery with him and YES he is a great Dr. but what happens with those that are in need? Where do we go?

Does anyone know of a Surgeon that does accept MEDICAID, in the Orlando, FL..... area?? I need help please!  

 

Were you able to fine a surgeon in orlando? 

Hi April. I live in Orlando. I found a surgeon at the Tampa Bariatric center. They accept medicaid. I have staywell. I already attended the seminar and am now in the process of getting all of my clearances done. I'm just starting the process and my INS co request me see a nutritionist for 6 months. So hopefully I will have my surgery in June or July. Hope this helps. The perform the bypass, the sleeve, and the lap band. I'm excited

Can you please give me the info? I live in Orlando and also have Staywell.
