Aetna POS II



Recommended Posts

OK. I've been in this process since 2/09. I have Aetna POS II insurance. I am doing the 6 month diet w/my PCP, per Aetna's requirements.

In addition to this requirement, Aetna requires 2 yrs proof of obesity.

Here's what I have in my medical records (I requested all of them for the last 8 years).

46 BMI 2002 (from doctor)

46 BMI 2002 (from nutrionist), stating in the Dr's transcripts "Patient states he has been this size since he was 17 years old". I was26 at the time, I am 32 now.

46 BMI from 2005. (doctor's visit)

46 BMI from 2006 (doctor's visit)

46 BMI from....2/09...to present. ou

I didn't go to the doctor from 11/06 to 2/09...

Do you think this is enough info for Aetna to approve me?

If not...I'm sunk. I TRULY have been at 46 BMI since about 17 years old...actually higher than that at times, but no lower!

Thanks for the help!

Hi ...I'm not sure how much this will help but i also been going through this since feb. I have bcbs alabama they also require the 6month diet with pcp and 2 year weight proof. well needless to say i very seldom go to the doctor and when i do i'd beg not to weigh ,so i didn't have any medical records proving my weight/bmi My insurance just asked for pictures of myself for 2006 2007 2008 so maybe you can take that route...hope this helps you :thumbup:

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
