Anybody have Cigna?



Recommended Posts

Looking for anyone who has had experience with Cigna insurance. Preferrably in Kentucky.

They've told me they cover it but they're making me jump thru hoops.:smile2:

I have Cigna and yes it is a long process. Mine pays 90% I pay the other 10%. The surgery itself is costing me 1200.00 there is $500 you pay immediately out of pocket because they know the insurance won't cover it. It will end up costing me around 2000.00 out of pocket. If you haven't used up your hsa and deductable they will factor in as well. The Georgetown bariatric facility has a contract with Cigna so there are discounts.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
