  1. Hey , meonthego@live.com Thanks in Advance
  2. Hey DougNichols, Thanks for your answer ! What was your 3 months like ? did you have to log your food and exercise everyday? Did the doctor office send your logs to Aetna ? How long did it take Aetna to approve your surgery ? Thanks
  3. Hello everyone, I have Aetna and now I'm doing the 3 months multidisciplinary program. I know that I have to see my doc and nutritionist once a month at least . I travel alot bcz of my work so my question is , Do I have to see them one time during the 30 days or its ok if the gap between the visits exceeds 30 days ? for example I visit my doc early January, Late Febuary and mid March ? will that work for Aetna ? Thank you
  4. Bryn, Thanks for your input .. I'll ask my PCP to write me a letter , I'll try to get my gym visit history too . Thank you humpty dumpty, but as Cinderella mentioned, Aetna asked for losing weight attempts history !
  5. Hello everyone , I'm new here , I've been reading many useful topics in this forum so thank you for sharing. I have Aetna and one of their criteria to cover the surgery is that " The member has attempted weight loss in the past without successful long-term weight reduction ", I was wondering how can I meet this requirement if I never been in Medical weight loss management program . I've been on diet all of my life, I tried Low Carb, South Beach, Atkens, liquids ..... etc. However , All of these trials were not documented by a doctor or organization like weight watcher or Jenny Craig so have any one of you had the same experience ? Thank you so much . :]
