Hi!  I just wanted to let any lurkers know that my husband is employed by the state of RI and we have UHC.  I called to see if we were covered for WLS and they said flat out no.  I called back ( after speaking with a fellow member who offered that advice- thanks robin   ) and lo and behold they do! Its amazing what a few well placed questions will get you.  Soooo wanted to share that and hopefully it will be beneficial to someone out there!  hope everyone is doing well, I am having a revision hopefully, I am pregnant now so after the baby comes in just a few weeks we will begin testing and my hubby will be going as a first timer.  Talk to you all soon.

I am glad you called them again and was able to speak with someone who knows what the are doing.  All the best for a safe delivery and all the best with your weight loss journey.
