BUT!

If your insurance has excluded weight loss surgery (or anything related), this is the kiss of death.

Use any of the other 20 or so codes that apply. They are legit, and legal. No reason not to use them.

Need me to list them or have you got them all, Becky?

P.S. My year + long absence has NOTHING to do with my WLS, or my type of WLS. See my profile.

Please let me know if these links won't work for you. Most folks have no issues opening them but some I have to send attachments in email.
