Topic: RE: blue cross blue shield of ks "blue choice"
They will cover nothing. I have this insurance through my wifes work. Pretty much all Kansas insurance excludes wls. The folks with BC/BS that do get covered do not have bc/bs of Kansas. They likely are federal employees or work for companies like Boeing not head quartered in Kansas. Sorry I know this is not what to wanted to here.

Hi Jenni,
I am from Lawton, Ok. Well that is where I grew up. I was an army brat. I have lots of military friends. I have lived in KS for a while. It is ok and I am glad you like it. There are 3 doctors in Junction City, Ks. It is the LivLite clinic in the Geary Community Hospital, that is where I am having my surgery. I hope this helps you.

Well I have bcbs of ks but it is federal. They cover wls but not wl drugs.
My insurance is also a ppo. Your best bet is call the number on the back of your card to get all the answers you need, that would be your best bet. I hope that helped and good luck.

Hi Jenni,
Although I live 4 1/2 hours away, I strongly suggest the doctors at Geary Community Hospital in Junction City. I know it's just down the road from you. My surgeon was Dr. Bollman, he is fantastic! I also had a couple of different doctors for my personal care not having to do with my surgery while I was there. Each of the doctors I came into contact with was just wonderful! Geary Community Hospital is a wonderful hospital as well.
Welcome to Kansas!!!
Hugs

Hi, I just noticed we both are kinda new and starting the journey, so I wish us both good luck, as to stretch marks I get small boils and usually I scratch them or pop them, they will bleed a little, maybe leave a bruise, they are on my belly, usually they are sore before I pop them, they do look saggy/wrinkled after I pop them, I have no problem seeing them, but have you tried standing in front of a mirror or putting a mirror at a level where you could see them, hope things work out, B
