majorsmama 91 Posted May 21, 2015 How long did it take for Aetna to make a decision? I got an email from my surgeons office that they have submitted to Aetna for approval and I'm just wondering how long to expect. Did you call Aetna directly to inquire? I'm really anxious!

marybowlus 17 Posted May 21, 2015 I just found out this morning that I'm approved. It took two weeks to the day for Aetna to approve. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

amboyd 81 Posted June 10, 2015 Hi everyone! This is my first time posting. Do you still have to go through all the testing and months of waiting to switch from the band to the sleeve? Or is it quicker than the first time? I have aetna. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
