Cigna

[cathychatts 1]

I just called Cigna and was told that my claim was pending. The rep said she was surprised because it usually took longer. My information was faxed on the 10th of April and received on the 12th by them. She said it was very quick that the case was pending. The insurance clerk at the doctor's office faxed over 100 pages. It is looking good! :thumbup:

That's great. I am waiting on approval from Cigna as well. I called today and they said they should have a decision by Friday. Hopefully they will approve us both!

Wonderful! I heard horror stories about Cigna, but after I went through all of the pre-req's...they approved me in about 22 days!I thought for sure that they would play the "denial game." I was banded today! Good luck to you, and hang in there! Time passes quickly. :rolleyes2:

The Insurance clerk at my doc's office called today and said Cigna had denied me because of the 6 months. I have been in 2 different programs, but neither consecutive, but they did overlap and go 6 months... anyway, :huh2:someone from Cigna called the doc's office and asked for my home phone number and said she knew what they were looking for and wanted to give me advice... she also has had weight loss surgery. So the insurance clerk got together the records according to what she was told and faxed them today. So, I really don't know where I stand right now. :biggrin:

Another interesting thing the doc's office told me was that beginning May 1 they are going to begin using a new type of band. I don't know anything about the type of bands. :rolleyes2:

Good Luck to you! And thanks for the support and encouragement!:tongue:
