my friend has kaiser (full coverage) he’s thinking about having the gastric bypass surgery, does anyone know if kaiser covers it? and if not do you know how much it is. i heard that if your 100pds or more over weight they cover it. Also what kind of questions should we ask them that we wouldnt have thought about.

hey it is like 3500$ not 2 bad ha. ask ?’s like in a worse case bad happenings what will happen to me and also ask if the doctor has a bad history in this kind of surgery. well hope to help a little. bye sincerely, repcpp4life@yahoo.com
you may want to ask them to fully explain the risks if you haven’t already. sometimes the results are worse than being overweight.
I do not know what "kaiser" is. I do know that many insurance companies don’t cover gastric bypass surgery. Call the insurance company directly and ask them. As far as what questions to ask them…what do you want to know? Put it down on paper before you call them.
Gastric Bypass Surgery/gastrectomy/lapband (all types of weight loss surgery) is very cheap in India.There is one company that is very famous in India that arranges obesity surgery for foreigners in India.They are called the Forerunners Healthcare.I read a lot about them in the Newspapers and about their patient stories.
I have also read that they arrange financing for american and canadian patients as obesity surgery is not covered by insurance.They also have photos pasted of their International patients.You can checkout their website.The cost savings are incredible.As a doctor i personally believe that your lobesity surgery can be easily handled in India as the quality of healthcare available here is simply best in the world.The surgeons are USA/UK trained and facilities are 5 star.
My cousin got her obesity surgery in India throught the forerunners healthcare .SHe is more than very happy with the results.She has lost 55lbs in 5 months.She just paid 25% of the amount she was quoted in USA and is all praise for this forerunners healthcare company.hope this helps
