I bought something online that helps get you through the insurance approval and also helps you keep track of who you spoke to and when, etc. If you want a copy sent to your e-mail, post it and I'd be happy to send it to you. I hate for anyone to have to pay $50 for it, when I bought it and can share the information!!!

Thanks so much for the info on obesitylaw. I talked to Kelley today, she's so nice and I felt so much better just talking to her. She sent me the papers already and I hope to fax them back to her by tomorrow. I really hope they approve me this time with their help.

Here's the chain of events:

1.20.11 My surgeons insurance coordinator submitted my paperwork

1.28.11 aetna denied me

2.4.11 insurance coordinator had me sign the authorization forms for Walter Lindstroms group at obesitylaw.com to represent me. She faxed it to them.

2.16.11 per aetna, appeal received

3.10.11 Aetna denied my appeal

3.11.11 I faxed denial letter to Kelley Lindstrom at obesitylaw

3.11.11 2nd appeal is sent

3.30.11 2nd appeal overturned - surgery approved!!! But I didn't find out until 4.8.11

4.9.11 the official letter arrived in mail

5.5.11 6am dr. Michaelson changed my life

I hope this helps you!!!

I submitted my information on line last week and still haven't heard from them. Looks like you may have gotten a faster response with a telephone call. I guess I should try that in the morning, I'm getting pretty anxious checking my email constantly.

I would definitely give the office a call. Kelley answered right away and genuinely listens. She emailed me the forms within a few minutes and I have faxed off all my info and application this morning. Here is the number 619-656-5251. Good Luck! I will let you know as soon as I hear something. Hopefully good news!

I hope I've gotten the info to everyone who needs it! I liked it because it has forms and stuff in it so you can track who you talked to at the insurance company, all the diets you've tried, etc. It makes a nice little workbook!

Ugh! Dr's submitted paperwork to Aetna August 10, 2011. Denied on August 16, 2011 - they waste no time saying "NO". LOL Appeal office submitted paperwork today September 13, 2011 So excited - will be SHOCKED, if I get denied again. My paperwork was solid. BMI 37, Hypertension, Severe Sleep Apnea, family history of diabetes. I'm very optimistic that I will be approved. Will sound off the response when it comes. I'm excited!

I have just started the process and can use all the help I can get, would you mind sending it to me too? gracierose9581@hotmail.com
