Quick question - does anybody know of employers/insurance that covers the RNY?

I was speaking to my doctor yesterday and he informed me that many of his patients who used to have insurance plans under their provider/employer that did not cover the RNY changed jobs for this sole purpose.

He stated that though it may seem tacky or come across that way sometimes you have to seek out other options and that this may be one of them.

any ideas?

My employer does cover WLS but it is a tough economy to be changing jobs or to even find someplace that even has openings. Good luck.

BCBS covers RNY as long as you meet ALL of their qualifications.
