Hey all, I recently completed my 3 month multidisciplinary program for aetna!! My attentative surgery date is April 9th pending insurance approves me. Everything was in order until one of the reps in my Dr office said "do you have two year weight documentation?" Started my whole journey 12/2011. Between 2008-2009 I was between nj and Ga or had no insurance. I started having the Dr track my weight again in 2010. Long story short, I know my bmi has always been high, but my pcp was giving me a hard time about releasing my records and I'm nervous 2010 and 2011 won't be sufficient since I stated my program Dec 2011... Does anyone have any insite? Could this possibly lead to a denial?

NJS:

Don't worry, I started my journey in November 2011, I have bcbsil. Went through all the necessary steps, but always knew that my bmi was less than the criteria. When paperwork was denied, I devestated, but not for long. Went into plan (. When plan ( fell through I went to plan ©. Okay, plan © went through. My surgery is set for April 19, 2012!!! Finally. Just don't worry, you'll be find, help them get all your paper work in line, there is no reason for you to be denied.!! Keep the faith.
