What about charges, payments and insurance coverage?

Some insurance companies will cover the charges associated with the surgery and the hospital stay as well as the surgeon’s and anesthesiologist’s fees. The pre-surgical assessments as well as the post-surgical education and support sessions are typically an out-of-pocket expense.

The Jewish Hospital Weight Management Center will work directly with you and your health insurance carrier to obtain the maximum coverage for your procedure. If you do not have insurance coverage a self-pay option is available, please contact the Weight Management Center for more details.
