Does Insurance Cover Weight Loss Surgery?
Preparing for Surgery
If you are considering weight loss surgery, it is important to know that insurance may not cover every aspect of your treatment.
In order to qualify for insurance coverage, bariatric surgery patients may need to present documents and undergo tests, and pre-authorizations are required.
Maximizing Coverage
The friendly office staff at Northwest Endosurgical in Houston, TX, knows how to work with insurance companies to help patients get the coverage they're entitled to. We file all the necessary paperwork with your provider, work with insurance reps in real-time, and take care of all the follow-up so that your bariatric surgery has all applicable benefits in order to minimize your out-of-pocket expenses.
What About Revision Procedures?
Even if your insurance policy does not cover bariatric surgery, a revision procedure might qualify for coverage if it's medically necessary. You can count on us to be your advocate in securing maximum coverage.
What Can I Expect to Pay for Surgical Weight Loss?
The best way to get an accurate answer to this question is to book a consultation with Dr. St. Laurent. During your visit, he will conduct a careful analysis of your health history, the current state of your health, and other factors to determine which procedure is the best fit for you. From there, our helpful staff can begin exploring how your insurance will factor in, and if needed, we can begin explaining your financing options.
Keep in mind that you may not be a candidate for bariatric surgery; some patients are better suited to our weight loss programs based on nutrition counseling and meds. When we pair these programs with GLP-1 drugs (such as Ozempic), they start as low as $285/month with financing.
