CIGNA APPROVED ME!



Recommended Posts

I went through True Results..yesterday was my last visit of the four weight loss consultations that was required and I have completed everything else that Cigna has required but the insurance coordinator said that because my PCPs letter did not say it was a medical necessity that I may not be approved. It did say he thought I was a good candidate and I have HBP with a BMI of 43. I am hoping that I get a quick approval like u.. But either way congrats and good luck...

Hi CJ

My PCP letter did not state it was medical necessary, just that I was a good candidate. I got approved in 5 days.

They only initially approve one night, but your surgeon should notify the hospitals billing/insurance certification office while you are in if you medically need the extra day. I was approved for one day but stayed two.

My surgeon did not require anything preop. Postoperative nutrition has been a struggle :(. Hard getting all my Fluid and Protein still. I get full really quick and I just finally found a Protein Powder I like. Hoping that will help me start meeting my target. I know you are excited! Keep us all posted.
