I chose the most expensive Aetna plan from my employer. It's Aetna choice II. Does anyone else have this? How long did preop testing take? Does it matter that I'm not required to have a pcp?

I have the same insurance, Choice II Open Access. From my first consult to surgery it took about two months. Had some scheduling hiccups so it could have potentially been sooner. It took 10 days to get the approval at the end of it all but only because the caseworker went on vacation. Overall, I was pretty impressed with the process. The doctors and insurance coordinators know how to get you approved so that helps.

No PCP. In fact, I didn't even bother to get my dr involved. The surgery center handled everything.
