Amy O 7 Posted April 14, 2012 Two years ago I started researching various WLS hoping to have surgery done. Long story short I had an excusion on my ins, changed jobs which now gives me no insurance. I met an amazing (incredibly cute) guy, who is everything I could have ever wanted and he has asked me to spend my life with him So when we marry in October I will once again have insurance! Whats better is that I had future hubby send an email to Aetna asking if the sleeve is covered and it is!!!! He loves me just the way I am, but is totally behind me if I need to do this for me LOL sorry for the ramble but i'm so excited - things are working out for me in ways I never imagined! So now I guess I will start the 6 month Weight Watchers diet to get that out of the way. Has anyone else gone through Aetna Choice POS II? What were your pre surgery requirements? 3 shelleyrn22, ChristineS NY and Lissa reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Misstxdiva 73 Posted April 14, 2012 Congrats Amy! When I started my journey with Aetna POS II they required I do a 4 month supervised visit with the NUT and nurse practitioner, labs, X-rays and psych evaluation. I then switched to United healthcare in jan since my company switched plans so I just had to do two extra months. What REALLY helped is I talked to my surgeons insurance people and set the expectation that I'll be switching insurance plans and asked what all I needed to do to make sure nothing gets derailed so that everything I did with aetna transferred over to UHC. And sure enough everything transferred and I was sleeved 4/10! Good luck on your journey and congrats on your upcoming marriage.
