Hi Deborah, I was told the only proceedure that Medicare will pay for is the RNY. Dr. Jeffrey Hunter at Virgina Mason Federal Way accepts medicare. Kimaane's doctor also accepts Medicare but I don't know how to spell his name. Good luck,

Tee

Thank you both. I am attending the WLS seminar on Nov.3rd at Virginia Mason. If the RNY procedure is all that medicare will cover than RNY it is. Also Tee, please give Kimaane my love and best wishes.....Deborah
