  27. Net gain?

    tamlalynn replied to sleever516's topic in Insurance & Financing
    I have Aetna in NJ. My 1st visit with the NUT 233.9lbs, 2nd visit 235.0, 3rd visit 233.5 4th visit 233.0. BMI 40-42. Coordinator submitted to Aetna 3/14. Approved for band to sleeve revision on 4/12. Surgery is scheduled for 6/7. Weigh yourself weekly and replace meals with Protein shakes when you can it will help get ready for post op. You absolutely cannot weigh more at the last NuT visit than the first visit. Aetna is very strict. Sent from my SM-T230NU using the BariatricPal App

    I am actually approved. The notice was indicating that the Surgeon would not be paid for 2 procedures. They just had to change some codes. Officially approved! Sent from my SM-G900T using the BariatricPal App

    So, I was approved for the sleeve but denied for removal of the lapband because it is not medically necessary. I am confused. Has this happened to anyone? Sent from my SM-G900T using the BariatricPal App

  32. Onto the Approval Phase

    tamlalynn posted a topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
    I started preop clearence appointments 12/8/15. Cardiology, Psychology and Pulmonary all cleared in January. Today I completed the required 90 day nutrition counseling. After my appointment with the sugeon in 2 days they will submit to Aetna. Hopefully it won't take long for Aetna to complete the review and make a decision.

  33. Emotional eaters question

    tamlalynn replied to Rvamom's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
    Eat Q is a great book about emotional eating. Highly recommended Sent from my SM-T230NU using the BariatricPal App

  34. Almost time to submit to Aetna

    tamlalynn replied to tamlalynn's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
    Your plan should mention something about weight gain. My plan required an exercise program with documentation. Sent from my SM-G530T using the BariatricPal App Guideline says "there should be no net weight gain". I hope that means over the entire 90 day process. It's not that specific so I am keeping my fingers crossed and was wondering if anyone else had experienced any issues. Sent from my SM-T230NU using the BariatricPal App
