Welcome Shonette.... Each insurance company is different on their requirements Aetna PPO does require a physician monitored 6 month weight management program. Some require 3 months some require none is just depends. Good luck !!! :biggrin:

Well I just got back from my primary care doctor and she really upset me :biggrin: . Because of them telling me not to come one month (July 08) and now not correcting their mistake I am gonna have to submit my paperwork and just pray Aetna still approves me. I am beyond upset by this and their mistake. If I get denied for the surgery I will have to start my 6 month monitored weight loss all over again ....yay

Aetna Denied - Everybody's blaming each other

CONGRATS to everyone who got approved. My drs office hasn't even sent my paperwork off for approval yet and they are basically saying im going to be denied just because I didn't see my primary care for 6 consecutive months ( Feb, Mar, Apr, May, June and Aug). Im getting so discouraged. Im 5'7 315lbs. I have been overweight my whole life. Hopefully everything will work out....i just gotta pray about it -
My name is Kristal im 28 yrs old. I live in Jacksonville,FL. I am in the beginning process of getting the lapband. They should be sending all the paperwork off to Aetna pretty soon I have finished all the requirements they asked for. I am kinda worried because Feb 08 - Aug 08 I did a 6 month monitored weight program through my primary care doctor required by Aetna. I went every month except July I was told I didn't need to come I didn't know how the process went. Dr. Cywes office says that I could get denied for not going six months consecutively I hope that is not the case. Hopefully everything will workout and I will be approved for the surgery. I am 5'7 and currently weigh 315lbs:cursing: .....This is the biggest I have EVER been .. Something has to be done!!!
