Does medicare and medi-cal insurance cover any weight loss surgery or programs?

Q. I'm very obese with a very high BMI. I got medicare and medi-cal as health insurances, can they cover any weight loss treatments or surgeries?

A. Medi-Cal does NOT cover any weight loss medications, unless the pharmacy dispensing it is willing to write a TAR (Treatment Authorization Request), and that too only with a valid RX from a doctor who can provide them with a Medical Justification as to why u need such med. In other words, u need a doctor and a pharmacy willing to do a little extra work to be able to fill ur prescription for an appetite-suppressant.
If TAR is approved then they will dispense u w/the med. They'll need to know ur height/weight/BMI in order to be able to justify why taking this med could be beneficial to ur health.
As far as procedures, sorry, i have no idea.


What is the best method to lose weight fast?
Q. I am 20 pounds overweight, and I was just wondering what are some weight loss treatments, methods, etc. to lose weight fast? I am dieting already, and one of my friends told me to try slim9 diet pills. I know there are other ways in loosing weight than just using pills -__- They also recommended Herbal life, but I don't know -__-

A. Drink a lot of water (reduces appetite)

Eat healthy low calorie meals

Avoid snacking on unhealthy foods-stick to healthy low fat snacks

Excercise; do cardio.

Reduce stress levels (said to increase weight)

Avoid fizzy drinks

Increase your fibre

Eat fresh fruit instead of drinking fruit juice. Juice is often sweetened


The thing that will help the most is cardio so try and go out for a run etc

If you answer this, I'll vote you the best answer.

A. =/
what do i get for answering?


What if i reach my goal weight by the time i'm on level 1 or level 2 of EMAGRECE SIM ?
Q. What should i do if i'm taking the Emagrece Sim weight loss treatment and i achieve my desired weight when i'm still on level 1 or 2? Should i continue to take levels 3,4 and 5 or is it safe to stop treatment without putting on the weight again?

A. i would say yes because most of the time you end up gaining weight back when you stop taking the pills.

If you don't mind me asking....where did you buy yours? I am looking for some.

Email me Carebear9a@yahoo.com with subject Emagrece Sim.

Good luck!
