How long did it take for insurance to approve you?

can some of you share what insurance you have?? I have AETNA and am wondering what the turnaround is. Hoping to have surgery this summer.

I received my approval letter today!! I met with the surgeon on May 24th and the approval letter is dated May 27th. I so excited, my surgery date is scheduled for June 17th. My insurance is Oxford. I've have been on liquids for 3 days now and have lost 5lbs already. Good luck to all those still waiting for their approval.

My husband and daughter were approved through my insurance within 4 months of starting the process. My daughter surgery was in December 2009 and my husband was January 2010. We have Blue Cross Blue Shield of Illinois.
