Congrats! I'm playing the waiting game with Aetna. The pre-certification nurse who was assigned to me has been on vacation and he'll be back Monday 9/12. Fingers crossed that I hear something soon. You must be SO excited! Good luck to you!

I was approved today for surgery September 22nd here I come....yay me

NewLyfe2011- CONGRATS! I know exactly how excited you are as I have also been approved for September 22nd!

I was scheduled for 8/4/2011, however, I got cold feet and could not do it. This time I am going to do it! Where are you

having your surgery? Doctor?

Much good luck and more success to you.

YAY!! Congrats! I'm still waiting on my PCP to write the recomendation letter. FRUSTRATED.COM!!

I called and told them I would be coming up there if I didnt have it by Tuesday. :) Praying and keeping my fingers crossed.

Congrats! I'm scheduled for the 22nd as well. Started my liquid diet this week which overall hasn't been as bad as I was anticipating. Good luck with your surgery!

Thank you so much...my surgery will be @Gwinnett Medical in Georgia, my surgeon is Dr. Richards. I am just trying to get past the whole liquid diet. I think I should've prepared myself lol but it will be worth it

Hey Newlyfe2011... I just wanted to ask you a few questions... Did they tell you how much your portion will be out of pocket? Do you have to pay upfront?

Yes, I will only pay 250.00 being that its an outpatient procedure and that is due at the time of my surgical interview
