Financial Considerations

Many health insurance plans provide coverage for bariatric surgery. Each plan has specific criteria that must be met prior to pre-authorization for a bariatric procedure. Some plans are more restrictive than others with regard to documented activity required of the prospective patient prior to any surgery. Our insurance liaison will provide you with specific information about your policy, plan and responsibilities at your initial financial consultation.

Patients without medical insurance coverage for bariatric surgery are offered a confidential consultation with our financial counselor to discuss the specific costs associated with the program and the best options for payment.
