  21. Ok I have Aetna and my last class was last Monday but I haven't paid the balance I have for my psych evaluation I won't be able to until Tuesday and then they will send all the information to my insurance. But I'm curious about 2 things is there a certain period of time where your insurance is like you've waited to long and have to start the whole process over again ? And 2nd is getting approved easy ? Or do a lot people get denied ? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
