Question:
How can I get insurance.

07/16 03:40 PM I am desperately seeking information on how to obtain some sort of insurance to try and have this surgery done as I have no income at this time. I have called Social Services, the Unemployment office and anybody else I can think of but nobody seems to know what Im talking about. I am unemployed but not disabled. I am only unemployed because I am a temp and work is slow in our area. Please, if anybody has a website I can look at or if you also had a problem like this, please contact me    — Mary R.

I think the only three choices you have are the same ones that everyone has....either you will have to get a job that has insurance benefits or you will have to purchase your own insurance, or you will have to pay for the surgery on your own. If I was in your position, I would find out what companies provide a medical insurance that will pay for WLS and do my best to get a job there. Good luck!
