This is one of the most commonly asked question in our practice. Our answer: ‘Depends on your health care plan’. We know it is important for you to check with your insurance provider as insurance coverage for bariatric surgery varies considerably between companies. Dr. McEwen’s team will work with you and your insurance to obtain and help you understand their requirements. We also have an on-site employee, Jessica, who works with insurance companies on finding out what requirements you will need to meet to qualify for surgery.
