Won't you still have to pay for the operating room, assistants, anethesiologist (sp), and hospital? I remember a post here saying WLS for her was $88,000 (I think the average is more like $35,000)... surgeon's fee was only $4,000....

Lucky you I am in envy of you
Wow how lucky you are to get it free, it is going to take me the next 3 years to pay for my op I couldnt believe that it cost £7.450 and you only get after care for 1 years and any top ups are £150 after that.
I wish you well and at least that will be one worry you will never have after the op the monet aspect of it.
Take care And I hope all goes well for you

Tooney, that was me... good ole $88,000 of a bill that I have racked up so far, oh and Im not done racking it up. Everytime I go see the dr and all the labs and everything else that she can think of, its crazyness. But thank god for my insurance outta pocket I have payed $16.00 total.
