I had COBRA a few years ago & while I didn't use it for surgery or anything that big, I did use it for dr visits, scripts, etc & I never really noticed/thought about the transition. I used the same cards, etc as I always had. I believe it's all internal w/ins co & employer. They know how to track/bill it.

I got the Aetna approval letter and it says one day in the hospital? Did anyone else get this? I'm supposed to be there 2 nights.

I haven't gotten an answer yet myself, but I know with hospitals in general, if a longer stay is needed, & the dr submits it, they won't deny it.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
