  1. Good morning all! I have recently started the process to go through WLS. However, I have two insurances. Aetna and MD medical insurance (Medicaid). So with Aetna I can possibly get approval within 4 months. But with Medicaid it takes 7. My surgeons coordinator recommended that I drop the Medicaid. Because their process takes longer, but I don't want the financial burden that I would incur as a result of dropping the secondary. Why would you do? Also, if anyone has had this issue what guidelines did you follow? The primary or secondary. I really don't want to wait until winter to do the surgery. Any suggestions would be appreciated!

    I am following both guidelines. Aetna has 3mos guideline and 6mos. Medicaid 6mos. I was choosing 3mos because I didn't want to get surgery in the winter. My surgeons coordinator was the one trying to get me to drop the secondary... I don't mind it since I have to it just wasn't my preference.

    I have my psych eval July 8th. sleep study scheduled. I need to schedule my nutrition appointment and do my support groups. I guess that's why I'm antsy because I scheduled things already. I guess I'll have to stick out the 7mos.

    I called the secondary and they told me I would need to follow them if I wanted the portion not covered by aetna. Which kinda sucks.
