Question:
Anyone get TriCare Prime to pay for a BPD/DS?

Looking for a surgeon who takes TriCare Prime and will do the BPD/DS in the Virginia/Maryland/D.C. area. Dr Elariny does not take Tricare Prime anymore. Any ideas? Posting for a friend. Thanks a bunch!    — Alicia V. (posted on November 21, 2002)

Go to www.duodenalswitch.com to find Duodenal Switch surgeons in your area. You can then call them to see if they take that type of insurance.
