Obesity Lawyer ? Can someone tell me

about this ??  Ok, in a nutshell, my company is "Small Business" and bariatric surgery is " not a covered benefit"....however, I spoke to someone at Aetna and she said there may be loop holes and told me to go to : http://www.aetna.com/cpb         click on "accept" and I may find some info "helpful" to me there... like if my doctors are deeming this surgery medically necessary, there might be something I can do.  Does anyone have time to check that out ?  On another note, sometime ago someone mentioned to me about a lawyer to help me out with this... does anyone have any advice ?

Sorry, I am not familiar with any of what you are asking about, tho my DH has his retiree insurance with Aetna. Have you tried posting your  on the insurance forum on this site? As far as an attorney - sometimes I see the ad on the main forum for an attorney to help with this type of situation but I cannot locate it at this time. Maybe someone on the Ins forum can help you or does your doctor's office have contact with attorneys that handle this situations? http://www.obesityhelp.com/forums/insurance/ Christine
