They accept Paramount Advantage (Medicaid). They do not accept Buckeye Community Health (Medicaid). I am not sure about Medicare
(419) 291-6777
Promedica Toledo Hospital Metabolic and Bariatric center
3909 Woodley Road, Toledo, OH 43606
They perform the surgery at the Toledo Hospital.
I was told that straight Medicaid does not pay for WLS but once you joing one of the managed care plans you can qualify. Hope this helps someone just starting off. I am scheduled for my surgery on 10-17-2012!
