New here... Aetna... worried :(



Recommended Posts

Hi TalibahT, Your right, it does depend on the agreement between company (employer) and Aetna and even though Aetna says it will cover 100% there are guidelines that still must be followed to obtain the pre-certification so a good insurance secretary at the Doctors office should know what those guidelines are and let you know. Follow to the letter and you should have no problems. Good Luck!

How do I post a new thread on here? I'm using the iPhone app?

Go to the forum option, select the category you want your post to be listed under, then hit the arrow in the right top corner and it will say start a thread or new thread. :)

I got approved 37 BMI thru Aetna I am 2 weeks post surgery and I had my approval within 24 hrs

Sent from my iPhone 5 using VST

I also have a BMI of 37, do you have any comorbidities? I have elevated BP, but never been treated for it...I was hoping to lose the weight. Now I am having a sleep study to try the sleep apnea diagnoses.

Wife and I both have had no problems with Aetna. My wife is about your build.

Thanks for all the responses!! I have an appointment with the pulmonologist on Thursday so hopefully I will know more about the possible sleep apnea. Fingers crossed, lol!
