If you are interested in weight loss surgery and have not had a prior bariatric procedure, then your initial appointment with us will be what we call an intake appointment here at the Kentucky Bariatric Institute.
The process leading up to bariatric surgery varies depending on each person’s medical history and insurance requirements. You will meet our team and learn what testing and clearances are required as you begin your journey with us towards weight loss surgery.
Our insurance team will verify if your policy has benefits for weight loss surgery prior to your appointment. We will screen your health history to make sure you are an appropriate surgical weight loss candidate, and our Insurance Team will make sure you meet the criteria set forth by your insurance policy. Most insurance plans require that your BMI be 35 or higher. However, if your BMI is between 30 – 35, we can sometimes get you approved if you have a life-threatening medical condition, such as high blood pressure, diabetes or sleep apnea. At your first appointment you will receive a personalized benefits form that will estimate, to the best of our abilities, your total out-of-pocket expenses.
