The state has officially finalized the mandate to require coverage for weight loss surgery. This outcome reinforces how much can be achieved when we insist that medical necessity dictates patient care rather than corporate cost cutting. I will remain observant to ensure the implementation of this policy proceeds as intended.

Reaching our first hundred signatures represents a significant step toward getting the attention of state officials. I ask that you forward this link to a few colleagues to help us maintain this momentum.

needs to be covered period. so many people trying to live a normal life and the insurance companies are just blocking them.
My insurance just denied my claim after a year of prep. This is life saving surgery not a cosmetic thing. Fix this Florida!!
Its not optional for a lot of us. Stop treating it like some elective surgery.
Finally someone doing something about this. I know my life would be completely different if I could afford this procedure.
Total garbage that they get to decide who gets healthy and who doesnt. People are suffering while they sit on their piles of money

If they want to save money on long term health costs they should pay for the surgery now. It just makes simple sense.
