I've been out of work since August so financially it's been rough. So I ask for yall to pray for me that it's not to much and I can get it paid by then. So I can get the Jan 29th date. Thanx in advance!!! GOD BLESS! !

  18. I surely will!!!!
  19. No I dont have a date yet. I called the coordinator at my dr office today to let her know my denial was reversed. So I had to email her a copy of the letter Aetna sent me. She called me back and said the lady that does the insurance had to verify my benefits for 2014 and that they will call me to set a date!
  20. I dont know about bcbs but most insurance companies gives like a 6 month window from time of your approval
  21. Thank you so much!! Blessing to you as well
  22. So did you have to do any pre op blood work or ekg or anything like that? I was denied @ first but I appealed and was approved yesterday. So im waiting for Riverside to call me!
  23. Anyone here who had their surgery with Riverside surgical @ Lexington Hospital with Dr. Antonetti? If so what were the steps after you received your approval from insurance?
  24. Bamaboo64 Your right. Lots of people do give up and don't fight. But they should fight for it. But what I don't understand is why insurances make it so hard. Think about it, people having the surgery will save them money in the long run because It will cut out alot of health issues by losing weight
