They submitted 1st thing Thursday morning (15th) & I called member services to ask yesterday afternoon (21st). It was still pending, granted, but she was able to tell me that nothing was missing, etc.

It has been two weeks since they submitted to insurance and I still have not heard anything. I have tried to call several times and I just get voice mail saying that this person is helping other callers. When I speak to someone else, they just send me back to where I started. Tired of waiting.

I hear ya...when I called last Wednesday, all was well. Pending, but in order. Called yesterday & all of a sudden they are missing info & denied the claim. Idk what to think. My coordinator said it's not an official denial...idk. Starting to question all of this.

I spoke with the documents manager Wednesday night and it has been passed on to her team lead. She did not say that anything was missing but I should hear something by Monday. She said the new process takes a little more work on the front end but once it is passed on, things will go quicker. Good luck to everyone else waiting on approval!

I'm still waiting. :\ Today is 3 weeks since submission...I'm starting to lose hope. The coordinator called Tuesday & told me that they are missing wt info from 2011, but have 2010, 2009...etc. That's bc I didn't go to the dr in 2011. 1st off, I wasn't sick & 2nd, I didn't have ins for an annual. So, idk...I may get penalized for being too healthy AND uninsured. She didn't seem worried at all, but I've seen a lot of ppl here with issues w/Aetna. I guess we'll see.

MW- Dont throw in the towel or give up just yet.. It will all come through. I find it irritating that at one point they told you everything was fine and nothing was missing and now something is missing. It just makes you wonder do they take the time to view the files before spewing out misinformation.

I am in the waiting period with you. They just submitted my paperwork on 11/30. Fortunately with my employer, they have to give an answer within 15 days of submission... So we shall see. I am praying for ya and my fingers and toes are still crossed, getting a little fatigued, but still crossed :-) ;-).. Hang in there lady....

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
