Topic: RE: Does anyone have bcbs insurance???
My BCBS didn't pay for anything "weight" related. Paid for the colonoscopy, the lab work, but everything else was cash for me. It varies policy to policy.
Topic: RE: Question in the Tulsa Area
What part of town are you looking for a gym? All American Fitness is where I belong and the one in Broken Arrow is open 24 hours except on weekends. There's another one in Tulsa. There are a few Gold's gyms in town too. So many come and then go out of business but these two have been around for awhile. All American has a some good rate specials too. Welcome to Tulsa.
Topic: Question in the Tulsa Area
Hi there,
My name is Jackie and I had my rny in July 2009, I'm moving from Southern California to Tulsa, Oklahoma for a 6 month consulting contract. I was wondering if anyone could recommend a good fitness gym in the area that's reasonably priced. I belong to 24 hr fitness but they don't have any in OKlahoma :(
Would love any suggestions you have.
Thanks,
Jackie

Topic: RE: Dr. Fisher and Medicare
Just popping in to update. i have been to the seminar and i have turned in my five years of medical records and six months diet........ now i am waiting for my first consultation. I now know that Dr. Fisher asks for more than the insurance does. but thats alright at least i will have a good evaluation. each step closer just feels like such a big deal. lol. i have been in a wonderful mood all day since Dr. Fishers nurse called and let me know they had enough medical counting what i mailed in today. I just barely had the five years because befor i didnt have insurance therefor didnt go to the doctor. but appearently i had just enough. Thank you Father God.
Sometimes im the windshield and sometimes Im the bug, Blessing from God for both types !!!!!
Topic: Medicare people: How much did you come out of pocket for your surgery?
I am in a pickle. I have a medicare advantage plan and they cover 100% of surgery. Problem is today I found out that it is 100% of what medicare would pay...smh yea. I'm like whats the point of me having a medicare advantage plan if you pay what regular medicare pays???? Anyways I would like to know how much is paid for the hospital stay? I've talked to the anastheisologist (if thats how you spell it)lol and I've talked with my doctor and found out how much I have to pay him. Now the only one left to pay is the hospital and I'm praying it's not over $600 because that's all I've been able to budget.

I was both excited and scared before my surgery! From talking to other patients, it seems most of us waiver between those two and everything in between.
Congrats on taking the first step. I am so excited for you!

Topic: RE: Dr Keith..Dr. Gornichec....I am looking for imput from those that have gone to either Dr.
Jodi, I had Dr. Keith for both an Umbilical Hernia repair and the RNY and he has been great. He is very upfront though which is what I wanted in a doctor and will tell you like it is. I would definately go back to him and highly recommend him.
