Who is your Surgeon? The surgeon I am going through has one on his team and you can get an eval done through them after handing in paperwork. I also have United Health Care

My surgeon is Dr. Schweitzer at Hopkins. He recommends a Dr. Vaidya, but she does not take UHC. Today I went online to "My UHC" and did a search for psych who deal in bariatric approval. I found 3 that are covered under my plan (the best that UHC offers - even my fertility meds were covered with just $15 copay!!!) that are in my area. 1 near home and 1 near work. I have a call into the 1 near home. My husband is also having Lap-Band surgery, so we're going through this together Thanks for your advice everyone! Heather

please let me know how it goes, and what it is that you had to pay for the co-pay. What did you put in to find ones that specialize in Bariatric approval

Heather, My husband and I are both having the bypass done, we have United Health Care, we went to Dr. Dettweiler in Wilm, DE. Total cost was $60.00 for copay. Wouldn't hurt to call him. Good Luck, Dara
