In this day and age many health insurance plans do not cover bariatric surgery. It is called a “contract exclusion”. In the event that your health insurance does not cover or approve bariatric surgery you can choose our self pay package option.
The package includes:
Being a self pay patient allows you to fast track to weight loss surgery in as little as 2 weeks. This is due to the absence of criteria and rules imposed by the insurance companies.
These are the steps from consultation to surgery:
Whether it’s a routine checkup or emergency surgery, you shouldn’t have to worry about how to get the best medical care. That’s why we’re pleased to accept the CareCredit healthcare credit card. CareCredit lets you say “yes” to recommend treatment and pay for it in convenient monthly payments that fit your budget.
The CareCredit health, wellness, and personal care credit card gives you a convenient, flexible way to pay for care for the whole family—including pets! With everyday promotional financing for purchases of $200 or more, you can pay over time with convenient monthly payments.
BLISCare is an innovative, one-of-a-kind insurance available to “best-in-class” physicians. BLISCare is not health insurance, but rather it protects the patients of a BLISCare insured surgeon against covered complication related medical expenses should they occur form a BLISCare covered procedure. It works like a financial backstop. Protection from medical bills due to a surgical complication comes with what you buy when you choose a BLISCare physician to perform your surgical case.
With BLISCare, the physician is able to make a commitment that, should the patient suffer a covered surgical complication, the patient will have access to additional medical care up to the procedure benefit limit. BLISCare is available in plans that cover this risk for up to 60 months following surgery.
You can get more information about our BLISCare during your consultation with Dr. Paul Wizman.
