I live in Texas and I a self employed. PCIP.gov isn't taking new applications in my state. Texas High Risk pool does not cover any sort of weight loss surgery. I don't qualify for medicaid and don't want it. Credit is in the 400's and I can't afford to pay out of pocket.
Is there any way possible that I could get insurance in the state of TX? Any help is appreciated.
Unfortunately, most people are not in a position to be able to get a second mortgage at 4%. I don't have a mortgage and my credit sucks. I would have loved to get a personal loan through my bank, but it just wasn't an option. I think the medical loan companies are kind of a last resort.

Why do people use these kind of companies? Is here an advantage to it?
I was just going to do a 2nd mortgage at 4%
I don't plan on spending any money so I didn't need any "advice" regarding that.

I realize that. I was asking for experiences.
I'll be sure to post my experience to help other's in the same situation.
Wow... very rude.
I was trying to save you $1K. Never mind, perhaps you should just pay it and then you'll have your experience to share.

Hi! Does anyone have the 1 surgery per lifetime clause on their insurance? Have you been able to get around that to get a revision? what was your experience?
I'm hoping there are people who have been approved and can maybe give me some insight into getting an appeal approved!
Thanks in advance!
You can pay a lawyer a grand or so but the reality is, those are the contract requirements and they have the right to decline payment.
I would contact Lindstrom Obesity Advocacy.

Never accept NO for an answer.
