A benefit you may already have
Most people are surprised to learn their employer may offer weight loss surgery as a fully covered benefit with little to no out-of-pocket cost. While many insurance plans do cover bariatric procedures, they often come with significant out-of-pocket expenses and a lengthy approval process that can take months to navigate.
Specialized employer programs like Lantern, Carrum Health, and Transcarent are different. They are designed to cover the full cost of surgery with no surprise bills. Their dedicated care teams help guide patients through pre-surgical requirement to ensure a seamless process.
Each of these networks credentials only a select group of surgeons based on outcomes, safety records, and patient experience. Dr. Korman is a nationwide in-network provider with all three programs.
If your employer offers any of these benefits, you can move forward knowing your surgery is in the hands of one of the most trusted bariatric surgeons in the country.
These programs partner directly with top-rated surgeons and surgery centers to give employees access to life-changing procedures at little or no out-of-pocket cost.
Benefits include coverage for travel and lodging expenses for you and a companion if you live outside the Los Angeles area.
