Who Foots the Bill for Weight Loss Surgery? Insurance coverage for weight loss surgery varies by state and insurance provider. If you are considering weight loss surgery, the first step is to contact your insurance plan to find out if the procedure is covered and what, if any, caveats may exist. Many insurance companies â both public and private â now offer coverage, including gastric bypass insurance.
How much will weight loss surgery cost? Most commonly, patients are able to access their superannuation early for weight loss surgical procedures as they are considered life saving in many cases. On average, gastric banding surgery costs approximately $10,000 to $14,000. Paying for the surgery without having private health insurance is not recommended. Although gastric banding is not covered by Medicare, private health insurance will cover you for gastric band surgery. However, there are some out of pocket costs and to find out the exact amount that you will be out of pocket, you should ring your private health fund and quote item number 30511.
