A Note About Insurance
Most health insurance policies do not cover medical weight management; however, we can provide documentation for you to submit to your insurance company to attempt reimbursement.
Financing for Bariatric Surgery
Insurance
Many insurance policies include benefits for weight loss surgery once certain requirements are met. Norton Weight Management Services can assist patients in verifying benefits, but patients are expected to take an active, lead role in the process.
Medicare/Medicaid
Patients who qualify for Medicare or Medicaid assistance have benefits related to weight loss surgery. These benefits have certain restrictions; members of our staff are experienced in assisting patients with eligibility.
