Question:
Will medicaid cover the LAp-band procedure? I live in Ky

I would really like to have the lap-band surgfery performed. I know they will pay for the RNY adn there is even a facility 10 minutes from me that performs it, However, I am willing to travel 4 hours away to louisville so that I can have the band. HA sanyone ever had the lap-band and had it paid for through kY medicaid?    — celgudino (posted on June 22, 2004)
