HIP Health plan of New York

Hi, Has anyone been able to get WLS covered by HIP-medicaid? Thanks, Stacy

Hi Stacy, I have HIP medicaid and they covered me. NO PROBLEM! I didnt even have to do anything. I just called in the beginning and they said as long as its medically necessary, its covered. Well, my date is 12/16 so I called to confirm and they said yes! My surgeons office did all the work. Who ar eyou seeing? I have Dr Geiss in Syosset Hosp. Good luck and email me if you have any other questions. [email protected].
