Hey there...I was told Cigna has 30 days to answer. I got approved in 5. Good luck!

I haven't heard about the band being linked to RA. However, having RA is what kept me from pursuing the band. My insurance said they wouldn't approve the band due to my existing autoimmune disease (my immune system would eventually attack the band), so it was sleeve or bypass. I am going to be sleeved this month. Good Luck with your appeal.

Where are the November Sleevers?
vsgchick replied to ToccoraVSG's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
My bariatric office is like this too. Very busy during the summer and over the holidays. I guess those are better times for people to take time off? I was approved in late August and having surgery in November. I also had to make sure it happened before the end of the year or my insurance deductible would reset. -
