Weight Loss Surgery in Miami

Let’s talk about what Weight Loss Surgery costs in Miami area

There are 2 main ways to pay for Weight Loss Surgery:

1. Insurance coverage
2. Financing / Self-Pay

Let’s talk about each of these one at a time.

Ready? Here we go…

Payment Option #1: Insurance Coverage

According to most insurance plans, you are a candidate for surgery if you meet one of the following criteria:

Criteria A: The patient has a BMI of 35 or higher with one weight-related medical condition (such as uncontrolled hypertension, diagnosed sleep apnea, diabetes, etc).

Criteria B: The patient has a BMI of 40+ (assuming the patient is healthy enough to undergo a surgical procedure).

Now, the only sure way to know what your insurance covers is to contact your insurance provider.

The specific thing to ask for is whether or not your plan has bariatric coverage.

We are happy to help you with this step, and to assist you in finding out whether or not you are covered by insurance.

Now, some people find out that their insurance would not cover Weight Loss Surgery for them.

That can be hard news to take.

For those not covered, or those uninsured, let’s talk about financing.

Payment Option #2: Financing / Self-Pay

If you do not have coverage for Weight Loss Surgery, there may be several financing options for you.

We are here for you to help you navigate your way through the system of finding out what is available and reasonable for you.

The only way for us to help you figure out the best plan for you is to call us or to come see us.

I’ll leave you with this…

I always encourage people to consider the cost of not having surgery.

Not only the physical and emotional costs. But the actual dollars and cents as well.

Most of our patients — before having surgery — have spent thousands of dollars over the years on weight loss programs, diet plans, and gym memberships.

What if instead you could stop doing all that?

And instead, transform your life with lifestyle changes and using your Weight Loss Surgery as your new “tool”?

We would love to see you at a consultation, to discuss the financial plan that makes most sense for you.
