I have Aetna Choice POS II and my insurance approved my surgery for Sept. 22, 2015. I had to do a 3 month supervised nutritionist diet. I finished that in late July. From that point it took about 2 1/2 weeks to get approval. I was lucky in that my surgeon's office took care of everything, and walked me through each process and medical test.
I have decided to go with Sharp Hospital in San Diego, CA and have been to the preliminary seminar they require. I haven't decided on the surgeon who I want to do my procedure. Does anyone have any good or bad experiences with Bariatric Surgery at Sharp Hospital, and who was your sugeon? Thanks.
