A member asked:
Hey i was wondering if my medicaid would cover a weight reduction surgery for me. i'm no expert but i'd say its pretty necessary.

There is no: state-funded insurance policies that cover weight reduction surgery that I am aware of, and I know North Carolina, South Carolina, Virginia and Georgia policies. As you can tell, we are in the stroke and heart attack belt of America. I hope you find better answers in your state.
