Topic: RE: MEDICAID AND MEDICARE SURGEONS LIST!
Hi Rachel :)
I don't know about the surgery. But when I was in Dr Cottam's office the other day there was a sign posted that read "Medicaid no longer pays for band adjustments"
You might want to call a surgeons office and ask them.
Good luck

Hello, my name is Rachel. I was curious if anyone has ever seen someone with Medicaid get approved for Lap Band? I am nervous that I will not be able to get the help that I need so desperately.
I am a single mom, so I know it will be next to impossible to get any kind of help. If anyone has any useful information, boy it sure would help.
Thank you,
Rachel

I was approved for surgery today! Wooooohoooooooo!
I hope it is soon! Dr Richard's office said they will call me Monday for a pre surgery appointment.
Oh Happy Day!

Hi everyone :)
I live in Roy Utah, am 45, married to a wonderful man and I am hoping to have Lap GB soon. I am waiting to hear back from my insurance Co (Altius) as we speak. Cross your fingers and hope for the best!~
I have been on diets since I was 9 years old. I have dieted my way up to 260. On my 5'2" frame I look like a apple with legs. LOL Actually I have lost down to 229. My God it was haaaaaaard! I think that is the most rediculous requirement. I mean, if I could lose the weight by myself, don't you think I would have done it already?!
I suffer from psoriasis, psoriatic arthritis, ankylosing spondilitis, NASH and Type II diabetes. TaDa! And for my next trick, I'll make my Diabetes disappear. LOL
Right now I am looking for a walking partner in Roy. Sometimes I feel kinda weird about walking by myself so I mostly walk at night.
Anyone in my area?
Waves to all

Sorry I'm so late getting in the discussian...but just had to chime in.
After getting permission from hubby, I joined 2 sites dedicated to swinging.
Yup. My sex drive increased so much I had to find someone to keep up.
Who knew it would unleash something.

Hi I am Judith Z and new to this site. I've been a Real Estate agent for 11 years in SLC, and have lived in Utah for 20+ years. My surgery is June 17 and I am looking forward to regaining my energy and strength. My husband and I are able to travel alot and the last few trips haven't been as much fun because I can't walk very far. That said, my goal is to be able to travel and enjoy it!
I did notice that the Utah site is kind of sparce, hopefully it will begin to grow and fullfill our need for information and support.
