My paperwork was submitted Oct 4 and still no response from Cigna. I did call last week and was told by a CSR that it was "approved" but still pending. Huh? So I asked to speak with the Pre-determination department and was told flat out "it has not been approved...still pending :0( I hope to hear good news since they have kept me in suspense for so long LOL. Please keep me posted on your status...

Has anyone been told that only their surgeon's office can call to check the status of their approval/denial?

[skintyprincess 12]

Ive been told 4 different things to date. I give up! Im just going to forget about it until the letter shows up in my mailbox. I'm still hoping to get this done in November but very deflated!

I think I was approved in 11 days. Then 6 months to complete all they required. Time goes fast though. Just make sure you keep your monthly appointments with the dr or you have to start over.

What??? I have Cigna and they told me the surgery was not covered. They were very mean to me and said they will not pay for my obesity
