I have United Health Care insurance, Choice Plus, and I was approved within 2 1/2 weeks. I called them and asked if they covered CPT code 43770, they said I must have a BMI of 40 or above, I did. So they covered me. However, if your employer has a written exclusion for WLS, then they will not, so always make sure you ask if there is an exclusion.
So far I have been happy with Dr. Gorospe, I think he is knowledgable, and knows his business, I am not that impressed with his bedside manner, but I think he is a good doctor and that is all he does is bariactri surgery, so he does about 5 or 6 a day he told me.
