Weight-Loss Surgery
Medicare and Medicaid have been covering weight-loss surgery since 2006, and most commercial plans have followed suit, says Lisa McDonald, a representative of George Washington University Hospital, which has a highly regarded bariatric center. In order to qualify you’ll need to meet physical criteria—you often have to be 100 pounds over your ideal weight or have a BMI of 35 or higher—and you’ll likely need documentation from your physician indicating that conventional diet and exercise haven’t worked for you in the past.
