Insurance & Financing

Free Insurance Verification & Appeals Service

Unfortunately, not every insurance carrier will cover bariatric surgery. Even when they do, there are still strict guidelines that must be followed before they will provide coverage. oBand® will help in this process with their experience and expertise in submitting prior request authorization packages and getting administrative answers in a timely and efficient manner. If you meet the requirements, the oBand® multispecialty team will fight to establish that significant weight loss is medically necessary and surgery is your only option.

Having the bariatric surgery covered by insurance is a determining factor for most patients. Therefore, in the event coverage is not initially offered, oBand® will continue to present your case if you are a candidate with extenuating circumstances. oBand® will initiate an appeals process on your behalf so that the insurance company takes one more look.
