Lovingmyselfforever 13 Posted October 11, 2018 Does anyone have Aflac Short term disability and hospital confinement? Just wondering if anyone that had the sleeve was able to use while in the hospital and off work. My surgery is October 24th and dr will keep me off for 6 weeks.

Ed_NW 684 Posted October 11, 2018 A friend of mine had Aflac and had to schedule his knee surgery one year after his coverage started. He then was able to receive the time out of work compensation. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

relaxrelaterelease 38 Posted October 11, 2018 Oh wow millerla4 that is awesome! Do you how your surgeon coded your procedure? All I've heard up to now is that AFLAC rejects claims involving gastric sleeve surgery. This is promising...just wish I had the hospital policy! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I used the short term disability and stay home for 6 weeks after surgery...though I believe it was approved for longer due to my job duties being very physical...
