Hi ,

I have Healthnet HMO and I went to my primary doctor to be referred and he sent it out and about 2 weeks later I got the approval for consultation and the group meeting. I thought that was fairly quick!! Healthnet does not require the 6 month pre op diet Yay! I think my process will be alot quicker than others. I did call my doctors office once a week. I will tell you that I just found out that if you have a bmi of 40 or more it pretty much approved but if it goes under 40 bmi you also have to have 2 comorbidties. I started to lose weight on my own and now i have to stop because i will be under 40. sucks I was really excited about my weight loss.Hope this helps

I have been waiting for Healthnet approval for 8 weeks now. My drs office told me it's been taking 8 to 12 weeks for a response from Healthnet. I have HMO and am in California also. good luck. I hope to hear from them any time now, and I'm gonna be really cheezed off it I get a denial after all this time!!!!!
