HI SARAH, DR. COX DID MY MAZE ALSO 3 YEARS AGO OCT 2000. ABOUT 8 MONTHS LATER I NEEDED TO CHANGE MY HEALTH INSURANCE. SINCE I WAS CURED OF AFIB, MY DR. SENT A LETTER WITH MY APPLICATION SAYING I WAS CURED AND EKGS WERE FINE. BLUE CROSS BLUE SHIELD OF VIRGINIA ( NOW ANTHEM ) APPROVED MY APPLICATION WITH 2 CONDITIONS. I WAS RATED 3 WHICH IS MORE EXPENSIVE THAN MY WIFE RATED 1. ALSO ANY HEALTH PROBLEMS RELATED TO AFIB WOULD NOT BE COVERED UNTIL A FULL YEAR WITH THE NEW POLICY. MY TOTAL RATE WITH WIFE WAS $650 A MONTH. NOT TO BAD! IF YOU CAN FIND A GOOD DR. THAT KNOWS ABOUT AFIB CURES (ESPECIALLY THE FACT THAT AFTER MAZE CHANCE OF STROKE IS LESS THAN NORMAL HEARTS BECAUSE THEY CUT OFF OR TUCK THE ATRIAL APPENDAGES) , MAYBE A LETTER FROM HIM WOULD HELP YOU WITH LIFE INSURANCE.
GOOD LUCK TOM
