I signed up for the website but have not been approved. maybe after my first appointment on Monday. I was thinking of getting a WII to have the WII Fit. I have heard such good things about it!!

I will look it up! When were you banded and how is it going? :huh2:

I haven't gone to the groups yet I will ask when I am in the office on Monday. I am planning on paying that as well - I called them yesterday. So no surprised Thank you :huh2:

I have my first consult on the 30th! Thanks for the advice :crying:

I like Schroder too!!! Did you have to pay a portion of your surgery co pay before surgery? I want to be prepared. I am starting my 2nd month of the 6 month diet. Lost 8 pounds so far! :w00t::w00t::w00t::w00t::crying:

Question for those with Brengman or Schroder. How much do the require payment of before surgery if you have insurance? have my first appt next monday yay!

I am so glad to hear such good things about Brengman! I have my first visit next week. How much do they ask for upfront if you have insurance? Just your deductible? All of your coinsurance? So anxious and nervous. Thanks!

I currently have Aetna insurance (on cobra). I am eligible for Medicare on June 1st. Aetna has told me I will have an 20% copay for the surgery. If I have both Medicare and Aetna at the time of surgery, will both be billed? Will Medicare pay the difference (the 20% copay?) Or should they submit to Medicare first? Does Medicare typically pay 100%? Since I have started the process with Aetna insurance. Will I have to start over in June for the Medicare insurance? Help me! I have so many questions and it's all overwhelming and confusing. But I know I need this done for my health.

I read the online info that the insurance company told me to read and it confused me even more. Hopefully someone will answer who has experience It's all so confusing!!!

Good morning! I had a question as to what the difference is between the three and six month diets that you must complete for approval using Aetna insurance. Thank you very much :confused3:
