New here, hello!

Hello All, I am new here, and am in the research stage. I have been lurking for a little while and am very impressed and excited by what I have seen. You all are very helpful. My husband and I are both considering agb, but have not gotten past the research stage. So far, we will be attending an information session soon and checking with my insurance (Federal Employee) to see if this is even do-able. Does anyone else here have American Postal Worker's Union, High Plan, and if so, have you had any success getting approval and what are their prerequisites? If anyone could help, it would be truly appreciated! Thanks so much Shai

Hi Shai and welcome to the Tennessee board! You can click on "Insurers" at the top of your webpage and look up the name of your insurance company and read responses from other people that have that insurance and how it went for them. Hope that helps. Again, welcome and good luck to you and your hubby as you start your weight loss journey! This is a wonderful site. Tammy

Thank you all for your welcome and advice. I believe my surgeon, (Morton) practices out of Southern Hills Medical Center, so not sure the Centennial site would be helpful, but I appreciate the tip . I called my insurance, and they do cover it, with some conditions, so I guess we'll see. I have a feeling this is going to be a long journey. Thanks again, Shai
