brandyrn73 13 Posted April 16, 2013 After 15 months of this tiring process, I have officially been denied by Aetna...TWICE! Just got the news today. BMI of 39+ with sleep apnea...not enough for them! You can kiss it Aetna! UHC approved me in one day!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0tracy0 6 Posted April 17, 2013 I was also denied twice by Aetna. I did an appeal and got approved. I just found out last Wednesday. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vogue 310 Posted April 17, 2013 I guess I cant complain...Aetna has not denied me for anything... paid for things Ididnt even expect... it may be due to what you group coverage allows more than the company as a whole... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
brandyrn73 13 Posted April 17, 2013 They paid for every single dime of all my testing, evals, etc. Then they deny the actual surgery twice. My coordinator said there's no point in appealing because the medical director is who denied me this time. Oh well. Happy that UHC approved me and my date with the surgeon is May 13th!
