Affordability

LAP-BAND Affordability

True Results, America's LAP-BAND leader, offers the weight loss procedure at approximately half the cost of the gastric bypass. Factoring the costs of obesity today, the procedure might not only save lives - but money as well.

We currently provide several payment options to help cover the costs of the procedure, tests and follow-up care. There are several options to choose from and each can be explained in greater detail by calling 1-800-324-2694 and speaking to one of our knowledgeable staff members.

1.) Insurance and Health Plans

Many health plans cover the LAP-BAND procedure, which means most, if not all, the costs will be paid by your insurance company. To find out if your insurance covers this procedure, attend a free seminar in your area.

2.) Financing Options

a.) Monthly payments of the loans vary based on the term (1-10 years) and the interest rate. Based on the annual interest rate, if you borrowed $11,000 at an interest rate of 10% over the next ten years, your payments would be as low as $132.20 per month.

b.) Credit Cards True Results has formed a unique relationship with the following creditors to make financing available at a rate you can afford.

Capital One Healthcare Finance       CareCredit

c.) Loans (Secured & Unsecured)

3.) Cash Pays:
A discount is provided to individuals who wish to pay cash for the procedure. Whether the source be a 401K, stocks, bonds, mutual funds, tax refund or just money you've been saving - the LAP-BAND procedure can be the best investment you've ever made and substantially improve your health and quality of life.

4.) Health/Flex Savings Account (HSA/FSA)
We recommend scheduling your first exam prior to investing in your account.

Potential Tax Savings

Having the LAP-BAND procedure may entitle you to receive thousands in potential tax savings. The IRS recently stated that individuals can deduct medical and dental expenses if they total more than 7.5 percent of your adjusted gross income (IRS Publication 502, p. 2). Adjusted gross income is your total income less a few very specific deductions. Medical expenses may include fees paid to doctors, payments for hospital services, prescription drug costs, physician co-pays and the cost of participating in a weight-loss aftercare program for obesity or any other medical condition defined by Publication 502. Speak with your tax advisor or read the IRS publication for more information on this money-saving option.

To access additional resources on the LAP-BAND System which includes more on insurance and financing, proceed to an online or in-person seminar. You may also call 1-800-324-2694 and speak with an associate who can help you decide which payment method is right for you.
