![obalon only gas filled gastric balloon](https://journeylite.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/08/Obalon-TheFIRSTandONLY-1024x239.jpg)
- unlike saline-filled balloons, gas-filled balloons float on top of the fluid in the stomach, so they are less likely to obstruct the outlet and cause vomiting
- the Obalon system is a gradual treatment, as opposed to saline balloons where the entire volume is done all at once
Are you still offering any specials for the obalon system?
I work 2nd shift so it’s easier if you email me please.
Thank you

Apologize for delay on this but start Jan 1 we will be offering Obalon for $6000, which is straight-up $1500 off, whereas before they were just rebates based on your weight loss.
I don’t have this kind of money for your procedure..I don’t get much from social security..I am on Medicaid..If it’s approved so why won’t insurance pay for THIS? This is such a big problem for a lot of people, so why not pay for it..I don’t have an email working on this tablet so could u answer me on here..I know this is my fault but I want help so badly!
Hello it’s unfortunate that no insurance companies cover the balloon. I can’t answer as to why but Medicaid does cover procedures such as Lap Band, sleeve, and gastric bypass if a patient meets their criteria.
