Question:
I was wondering if anyone has experience with Accordia Insurance.

I am scheduled for my first evaluation on Wed. 7-12-00 at the Bariatric treatment Center in Grove city Ohio. I would like to know if anyone has worded with Accordia Insurance, I have no idea what to expect. Also do Bariatric treatment centers only do open surgery? Do you recomend them or a private surgen? Thanks    — Lisa P. (posted on July 9, 2000)

My primary coverage is through Acordia and they approved my lap RNY within 3 weeks of the first and only letter from my surgeon. They did not require any other documentation from my PCP or from any other consulting physicians. If you are researching the lap RNY procedure, my surgeon was Dr. J.Ken Champion of Atlanta...www.drchampion.com. Best of luck!
