don't shut up!! shout it out!! i have aetna too, and i'm glad to hear of the quick approval. did you know they *do* pay for nutritional counseling and PSWL? just have your surgeon's office submit the claims. apparently everyone thinks aetna does NOT cover it. i am telling *everyone* at the mere mention of aetna. lol. now its my turn to shut up! congrats and good luck!!

Hello Deb, congratulations on your approval. I too have Aetna will be attending my 1st seminar next week. Could you tell me how long it has taken you from beginning until now? I am wanting to start this process as soon as possibly and was just curious how long it takes.

Thanks,

Drey

My first meeting was a seminar on March 19 , 2011. Had 12 weeks supervised diets , behavior ,nutrition and Dr's. appointments. Every thing was sent in Last wed

(May 25,11) should have had surgery on the 5th but I am gone a week in June so I have mandatory (by the Doctor) classes of 4 weeks preop , I have to miss one in the

middle but just one week wont kill me! I hope!! So adding it all up I will have surgery its like 4 months and 3 weeks from start to surgery! Seems long but

the time flies by. Good luck . will watch for your progress!
