@Renee,

I'm so excited for you!!! Sounds like you are almost there!

All, thank you for the suggestions and words of encouragement. I'm feeling more hopeful this morning. :sneaky:

I have Aetna and started with a BMI of 38.5 (I think, check my ticker). I had acid reflux for years (proof from perscription history) and had a sleep study done. The tech wrote that I have mild sleep apnea and her recommended treatment is weight loss.

Approved on the first try. Whew.

Good luck!

It amazes me the way these insurance companies work. I have Aetna as well. A 38 BMI along with mild sleep apnea, high BP, high cholesterol, acid reflux, all well documented along with letters of medical necessity from 3 doctors and was denied 4 times by the insurance company including the 1st and 2nd level appeals. It was finally overturned this week by independent external review. Now I just want to get this done right away before something else bad happens with them.
