Hi everyone ! Just so happy bc I’m in ONEderland! Yay! I’m so grateful that I was approved for this surgery. I had posted my date was 10/19, since then I lost 31 lbs. No regrets, should have done this sooner! Only new challenge is learning to eat verrrry slowly since I started soft foods. Love this site, I’ve learned so much from you all! 😊

Cigna approval with mild sleep apnea?

Thank you for the support on this site. I’ve learned so much! I’m nervous about this liquid diet but I have my shakes soups and yogurt ready to go eeeek! 😬👍 -
Hi! Anyone have Cigna and have trouble getting approved with just mild sleep apnea (35 BMI)? I see “obstructive sleep apnea “ is listed as one comorbidity so I’m hoping a mild case still qualifies me? I’m hoping for gastric sleeve approval. thank you

Hello! I’m new! I’ve done everything on the checklist and have 35.2 BMI and I just found out I have mild sleep apnea. Does anyone have experience having trouble getting approval from CIGNA for gastric sleeve with only mild sleep apnea as your only comorbidity with 35 BMI? Thank you in advance.

Cigna approval with mild sleep apnea?
dm80 replied to dm80's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I called the sleep office two days after and explained my situation that I need to know results ASAP for surgery purposes and the doc called me back the next morn! Now, I have to wait until my endoscopy is done (9/13) then I get surgery date and it’s submitted to insurance! Eek! Praying this works out. Good luck to you too ! -
