lrhodes46 55 Posted July 20, 2012 I have Cigna and having hiatal hernia repair along with my lapband surgery. Cigna is coving the repair part but I'm paying the rest. I can't seem to find the surgery center listed on my insurance. I have met my in network deductible but not the out of network one. And it's 10K. Anyone else come across the same problem and have to have it done at a hospital instead? Did it change your out of pocket cost? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jellyfish 17 Posted July 21, 2012 I am going to True Results Houston and I also have Cigna. I'm absolutely clueless as far as insurance goes so I'm not sure if this will help you or not. My surgery was covered by in full Cigna, and I got the notice that I was approved last week. It may be different for you since your insurance is only covering a hernia repair, but Cigna did make me wait nearly the full 30 days that they're legally allowed before approving the surgery. The reps at True Results told me that Cigna always does this, so it may be something that you want to plan for just in case. It went by pretty quick, but of course I was hoping for it to take less time. Sorry I couldn't be more help, but good luck on your journey! I hope you get everything worked out soon.
