Answer 1 Yes, Medicaid cover lap band surgery. Medicaid is the program which comes under United States Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). There are some requirements which you have to full fill in order to get the services of Medicaid. Your Medicaid covers lap band surgery or not depend upon your state.
I don\'t know about your state whether they allow for this or not. to claim for Medicaid you have to apply at the county Social Services office. Contact to your local social service office. I hope your state allow for this.
They require a letter of Medical Necessity and a history of your weight loss attempt in order to grant coverage for lap band surgery
Best of luck.
