Medicare News

Medicare is now providing coverage for the cost of weight-loss surgery.

Medicare requires that the surgery be performed at a hospital and by surgeons that are deemed a Bariatric Center of Excellence. This means the hospital and the surgeons meet strict guidelines as established by the American Society for Bariatric Surgeons.

Lexington Medical Center and the surgeons of South Carolina Obesity Surgery Center meet these guidelines.
