Question:
Exclusion of coverage&been appr. anyone have coresourse?

A friend of mine is trying to get approved for WLS but has run into a brick wall. She has had back surgery three years ago due to an accident. Since this time she has gained weight and has been told that the best thing she can do is to lose the weight. She has been on Meridia and phen fen nothing is working. Three weeks after her consult with the WLS surgeon she just found out that WLS is excluded from her health insurance. Needless to say she is depressed and doesn't no where to go from here. Can anyone please help me...help her.    — Tina R. (posted on April 15, 1999)
