Question:
Any sort of financial assistance available?

Husband unable to work, I can only work part time. I have no insurance but really need this surgery. Is there any help anywhere?    — wordworker (posted on May 23, 2010)

I live in NJ and I had my VSG surgery with full Medicaid. I used Dr. Neff in Camden County NJ. U may be eligible for food stamps and medical but you will have to apply.Even if your hubby is on Workman's comp U still may be able to get something. Contact me at [email protected] if you have questions.

If you check with a University which has a medical school, you may be able to apply for surgery through weight loss surgery through them and have it covered through Medicare-medicade, or whatever it is called in your state. marti
