King Cty might have more choices but the thing to remember is the individual coverage plans are usually expensive and not as good as a group policy. You already can cross off Regence, Premera and I can'tthink of the other one. There is one called Pacific Care I think...but I dont know about individual plans. Check out www.obesityhelp.com and look at the posts about insurance. I wish you luck...the one thing bad about Washington is insurance here sucks to be honest. Get a job with Boeing...they pay for WLS!!!! ~*~ AJ ~*~ Age 37 5'8'' Post op 7/24/01 Open BPD/DS self pay - Dr Baltasar -Alcoy Spain 07/24/01 BMI 64 415.1 08/06/01 BMI 59 390.2 -24.9 lbs! 08/16/01 BMI 58 387.0 -27.9 lbs! 08/24/01 BMI 58 386.5 -28.6 lbs! 08/30/01 BMI 58 378.3 -36.8 lbs! 09/10/01 BMI 56.7 373.0 -42.1 lbs!

Hey AJ I can't get a job with Boeing now- they're about to lay off about 30,000 people. Unless they need janitors! Someone just wrote in that they've been approved with Healthnet, so I'll look into that to see if they have a plan in Wa. jennifer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
