Insurance Question
When I worked for UMC and had state insurance, it did NOT pay for any WLS. I also worked for Baptist and River Oaks at different times with their benefits, and none of their policies covered WLS. Each facility had an exclusion clause that specifically states it will not cover WLS.
(I've been a nurse here in Jackson for the past 10 years to explain how I've worked at each hospital). I don't know about St. Dominic's or CMMC or Rankin.
