Does anyone know what aetna's policy on lap band is? I went on their website and got some information but then when I ran a search it said that Aetna is now requiring a complete medical history, you must have had a BMI of over 35 for at least 2 years (2 years ago mine was 33.3) must have a medically supervised diet for 2 years. Anyway, does anyone know what the current requirements are? My hubby just passed 90 days at a new job and our insurace will be effective Jun 1st so i can't call and find out yet. I am currently on Kaiser Cobra and wondering if I shoud just stick with that and try to get them to cover it. Any info/suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
