My doc did a peer to peer review with one of the medical directors at Aetna. I didn't get approved. I found out Wednesday that I was approved through doing an appeal. Thank God!!! I'm just waiting on my surgery date. Good luck.

I hope u get approved. Aetna denied me twice. I just found out that I was approved Wednesday through appeal.Good luck!!! : )I was denied twice by Aetna. I just found out today that my appeal was approved. Thank God!!!!Just found out after being denied twice that I'm finally approved. Thank God!!!! AA peer to peer review is when your surgeon talks with the medical director and tell them why the surgery would be medically necessary.Have you tried a peer to peer review?Has anyone out there ever used Lindstrom Obesity Advocacy? If so, were they able to get you approved?I have Aetna.Honestly, I'm going to try a different surgeon.I was told that once a doctor does a peer to peer and it gets denied then that's pretty much all they'll do.When I asked the lady at the office why I was denied, she had no clue. I think I need to find a different doctor.I feel you. After about 2 weeks, my doctor finally did my peer to peer review yesterday which got denied. When I asked the lady from the office why I was denied again, she had no clue. You would think she would have that information. It's kind of important. I just don't think the doc and her staff did all they could do to get me approved. I'm think I'm going to try my luck with a different doc.Peer to peer review was denied.I guess so. They office just called me and told me that the peer to peer review was done and denied.I was just denied again with the peer to peer review. My next step is to do an appeal.Congrats!!!!!!!!!I'm really concerned because my surgeon seems to be too busy to complete the review. It's going on 3 weeks since I was actually denied.Hi everybody. Has anyone had to do a peer to peer review? If so, how long did it take to get an answer?Congrats. That gives me a little bit of hope. My doc has to do a peer to peer review with Aetna.I was denied by Aetna about 2 weeks ago. My doc is doing a peer to peer review to see if she can get their decision overturned.I got down to about 165. My BMI right now is over 50.I got down to about 165. My BMI right now is over 50.Congratulations : )
