Question:
Has anyone been cancelled from there insurance before surgery?

I was approved for my WLS by my husbands insurance carrier, unfortunately his contract ended and his company switched insurance carriers. So I decided to take the insurance coverage offered by my employer, it happens to be the same insurance that approved my surgery when they insured me through my husband. Does anyone know if the approval will carry over to the new plan????    — Cristie C. (posted on September 29, 2001)

You will have to check with your insurance.It is my understanding that when employers purchase insurance, they have the opportunity to have certain procedures excluded from coverage to save some money. Your husband's company might not have had the surgery excluded, but your company might, so it would be best to check. Hopefully, everything will be able to continue on without interruption. Good luck!
