I just called my insurance company BCBS, and they informed me that the surgery is not covered under my plan? Now do i shop an employer whose insurance does cover it?

Hi Kristina~
I am sorry to hear of your unfortunate news. I would tend to agree with you by saying that IF, you want this surgery, I would consider looking for an employer who has not excluded it from their benefits package.

I have BCBS/HMO and I called my insurance company they do not cover Gastric Bypass. However, I called my husband's HR department and she said if I changed to the POS plan it would be covered as long as it was deemed medically necessary. You may try that. Hope this helps.
