How to get around an exclusion clause

Any suggestions as to how I go about convincing the State of Washington Public Employees Benefits Board(PEBB)to allow WLS. I am a state of Washington employee who is obese with multiple co-morbidities and I want to continue working and maintaining my household yet, my insurance as a state employee will not pay for the surgery but will pay for cardiac studies,C-Pap machines,loads of medications for hypertension,degenerative joint disease,depression etc. It is ironic that the state's medicaid insurance will cover this surgery for someone not working but won't for it's state employees or their dependents..any suggestions?
