So... from I've read in the forums over the past week or so, it seems that Aetna approves pretty quickly if you're going to be approved. The waiting game comes when you're going to be denied (or more likely to be denied). Is this a fair generalization? I know every case is different, but I sensed a bit of a pattern. Still waiting on my approval, it's only been 1 business day.

Not true. Mine took 10 days and was approved.

10 days is pretty quick! I've been reading 3 and 4 week waiting periods that result in denial. Thanks for the feedback newme37 :-)

I have honestly been wondering the same thing. I go to my last doctor visit tomorrow and they said they can submit it to the insurance company on Tuesday, hope it doesn't take long for an approval from Aetna!!!

I have Aetna as well. Did you have to do the 6 month diet?
