Hey, everyone! I live in Columbus, Oh and just got approved for Medicaid through a managed care plan. I have been wanting to get the gastric bypass done for quite awhile. I need to choose a mcp. I'm leaning towards United healthcare community plan of Ohio. But there is also Molina. And Caresource. I need help choosing. Which would be better chances of getting approved. I have a bmi of 43. 

 

 

 

Also, what were your experiences with these mcp's? What are their requirements? a

 

I have hypothyroidism. However, it can be regulated with proper medication. Would that prevent me from getting approved? 

 

 

 

 

 

Anyone know of any surgeons in or near Columbus that accepts Medicaid?

 

 

I ended up choosing United Healthcare community plan of Ohio. So any information of getting approved through them would be great!

Ohio Medicaid covers wls you need to start with your family doctor. get started with a diet program through your family doctor and get them to give you a referral for surgery that its medically needed.. Good luck :)
