mrsRodrigues 0 Posted March 18, 2014 Hi everyone, I'm new to this app and have been reading everyone's posts and I am truly inspired. Yesterday I had my consultation with my doctor and he approved me for GBS and has sent the approval over to my insurance. I have cigna HMO. Does anyone have any experience with getting approved and also the steps? Any advice would be great. Thank you in advance. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
luv2nurse 7 Posted March 19, 2014 I have cigna as well. I was denied the 1st time because my PCP's office forgot to send one piece of info. Once I resubmitted everything again, I was approved within 2 days. I hope this helps. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mrsRodrigues 0 Posted March 20, 2014 Did you have to complete 3 or 6 months of weigh ins? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
luv2nurse 7 Posted March 20, 2014 Did you have to complete 3 or 6 months of weigh ins? I had to do 3 months of nutritional consults with the dietician. Once that was complete, It took about a month for me to get my surgery date, but keep in mind that was only because I had to submit my paperwork twice. I also had to have 2 years of previous weigh-ins from my PCP. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
