Before coming to your initial consultation we would like to have you fax your insurance card to us (303-861-9036) so that we can assist you by calling your insurance company and checking your Bariatric surgery benefits.
Some insurance companies do have exclusions in their policies for weight loss surgery. An exclusions means that your insurance company will not pay for surgery even if it is proved to be medically necessary. However, there are some insurance companies that will pay for some portion of the surgery. We can help you determine what your benefits are. Because we need to prove surgery is medically necessary, we will put together a packet of information to submit to your insurance company. This packet will include your history and physical, nutrition consult, psychological evaluation, blood work, chart notes from your primary care doctors, and any diet history information you give us.
