I have Cigna insurance. Did anyone else have a problem getting approval? I have been through 2 denials, but still hopeful. I have met all the requirements they have asked for including 6 months under a doctor's care in weight management. In November my doc is resubmitting everything to try again. 3rd times a charm right???? Any suggestions??

I have Cigna...denied in Jan 05 after doing all the prerequist...They said I didn't have 6 consequetive months of seeing a dr. about weight lost issues...Now they don't pay for weight consultations so I went with back pain,blood pressure, pain in general...etc and then discussed weight loss and my progress while I was there.. and as soon as my 6 months were up they Approved!!!Good luck ..it can be done...P.S. I friend of mine did this at the same time and she lost weight on the 6 month dr plan and then they denied her cause she was now not over 100lbs over weight...

I have Cigna too! My paperwork is in their hands as I type this all 99 pages of it. I hope they approve me. I dont know why this has to be so difficult for all of us.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      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...

        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.
