  3. NOT APPROVED

    vmurphy posted a topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
    What are some of the reasons insurance companies give why they don't approve you? I know the PCP has to write a letter, but Can I also write my own letter to send in with my forms for approval? What are some tips and very important things to know that will help approve banding?

  4. Getting approved with Aetna HMO Patriot x Flex

    Hello every one .. Does any one have this type of Aetna HMO? if so ,was it easy getting approved for the LapBand? What are some of the reasons they give why they will not approve you for surgery? I know you need a letter from your PCP, But can I also write giving my reasons also why I need the Lap Band? All the info that you can give , would be great. I'm stressing so bad over this and I have not even submitted my forms yet. lol
