What Bariatric Surgery Does Medicare Cover? 
Medicare provides coverage for some bariatric surgical procedures -LRB- such as a gastric bypass -RRB- . For Medicare to cover the procedure , you must meet certain conditions related to obesity . You 'll likely want to review your coverage before getting the procedure done to look at the cost you may be responsible for -LRB- e.g. do you have Medicare Part A & B , a Medicare supplement plan , etc. -RRB- . I recommend consulting with an independent insurance agent/broker , if you want to review your options to add a Medicare supplement -LRB- Medigap -RRB- plan to your Original Medicare -LRB- Parts A & B -RRB- coverage .
