So my surgeons office sent over docs last Tuesday. I called today to make sure they had everything and was told that the nurse made some notes in my file as of today. Hoping it gets approved by Friday so I can start my class and final pre-op appointment. Fingers crossed!

So, luck so far but I will call on Monday to follow up.

I was told I have to pay my surgeon's office 3 days before surgery and the hospital the day off. My surgeon's fees are $495 and the hospital is $1500. It could be lower since I have had a few doctor's appointments since I was told the number.

Was it including weekends? I confirmed today that Aetna received my paperwork on August 14the. Its still pending and I'm on day 8 myself. Hoping Monday is my day.

My coworker called the office herself and told them she was approved. They called to confirm and scheduled the surgery the same day. Call the doctor's office and tell them. -
Thanks, good luck to you as well. My coworker was approved on Monday after two weeks. I'm going to call on Thursday just to follow up.

Aetna Approval Letter Question
kelew39 replied to Westfield27's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
It might be. My friend called Aetna and was told that the surgeon had put a date in her paperwork. That date may be pushed back a few days because she was just approved today and it was documented for September 5th. -
