Hey Everyone,

Just wondering how long it took everyone to get approved once your physician office submitted to Aetna? I am totally nervous. I have worked so hard to get to this point to not have the surgery happen!

It seemed like forever but it was actually very quick. My information was submitted on a Tuesday and got the call for approval Friday from aetna.
