Is there any way to bypass self funded insurance ref surgery

I work for the City of Ft Worth and our insurance is "self funded" therefore we would have to get approval from city council to provide for bariatric surgery. I don't know anyone who has gotten around that. Is it possible? Has anyone else had this experience. I'm by no means destitute, but with my house payment and other bills, I can't afford to pay for the surgery, but due to sleep apnea and diabetes, I feel I really need it. Is there any way to get any financial assistance? Please let me know. thanks
