I found out the other day that my insurance has an exclusion policy on all bariatric surgery for any reason. So I was wondering if you guys could tell me what insurance (and type of policy) you guys have that cover bariatric surgery, specifically the DS. I would greatly appreciate it! -Gwen

Gwen,
All individual and small group policies in Kansas exclude it from coverage. To my knowledge (I am an Insurance Broker) the only plans that have it included will be for employers with over 100 employees and then it is on a case by case basis.
