Recommended Posts

I am so happy and excited! I got the call today that Cigna approved my Sleeve surgery! I really thought these past 6 months would go in vain! My surgery is scheduled for Janurary 31st. I am not even nervous about the surgery. The way feel, they could of did the surgery today! lol

Congrats. I have Cigna also and I felt the same way while jumping through their hoops. Once my packet was sent from my surgeon to them it only took about 3 days to get the approval. I had my surgery this past MOnday, came home yesterday and today a lady from Cigna called to check on me.

yep seems like cigna is the best for covering this and getting it approved fast.. I sent all my information in on monday and got approved by Friday..February the 1st for me. I got approved in late november and I just had a incredible time getting of Cigs..Smoking is really hard to break ..but this is all behind me now and I am looking forward to my new life..

Congrats! I had Cigna too but it was a little harder for me to get approved since I had a revision. You will love the sleeve! I am so happy for you!

I am working with Cigna now. What kind of weight loss program or thing did you do for the 6 month supervised stuff. Did your Dr. just have a form that had to be filled out? I have done it all except, I'm at the end of month one of the diet stuff...aaarrggghh!!! Any advise? Thanks, Tracy

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
