Ok so I called the office of Dr Curry today to move my nutrition appointment up a few hours and decided to be brave and ask if they heard anything from the Insurance company (Aetna). They said they got a request on the 8th for "more information" which was promptly sent in (yeah Dr curry's office staff!!) So my question is...might is be looked at as a good thing if they didn't outright reject my claim?

I'm of course hoping that's the news. My question comes into play is that i had a physiocian supervised diet in the past but they only made you come every 2 months. So thinking i was going to have to do yet another 3 to 6 month supervised diet.

So once again i wait but now know i didn't get an immediate rejection!

Any opinions on this??

Gayle

Congratulations Gayle! I know how excited you must be.

It's always nice to see people on here so beaming with excitement!! It makes me all jumpy too that I am getting closer and closer to a new me as well. I am so very happy that you got approved and so quickly. What did you provide Aetna, if you don't mind me asking?

Awesome! Congrats!

N2B8R,

thanks you (and thanks everyone!) I had already had a 6 month supervised diet from almost 2 years ago and my medical history (i have a BMI of 40 and Hypertension) and they had the info for about a week, asked for more info ( not sure what Amy at Dr Curry's office sent them that time) but they approved me.

Good luck to you!

Gayle
