Im so nervous. I finished everything and got my surgery datę. Just waiting on aetna approval .. My surgery is supposed to be in 2 1/2 weeks in syosset hospital in ny

I just got my approval yesterday from Aetna my surgery is scheduled for 4/4. Yeah

Oh woww. That's great news.. You given me hope. I hope mine gets approved too

This was me last week. Approval came rather quickly though with aetna... File received and case opened Friday. Approved by Monday afternoon!!! Good luck!!!!

Woww oh Im so happy for u guys.. Still waiting for mine.. I hope it goes through .. I'm gonna call syosset in a couple of min.. To find out

Ok so just called and they said they sent the papers to Aetna this morning. Just waiting for a response.. I'm crossing fingers!

My Aetna approval came in about a week. They did not request any additional information other than what the doctor sent it.

Hi Jocy,

Good Luck to you! I have Aetna too but I just started my journey, I should be done by mid June. I'm a lil concerned about the low BMI but my Doc says the diabetes and HBP will get me approved. For those already approved, praying safe and speedy recovery. Be Blessed!! :-)

U don't have to worry about your bmi and you hbp. Mine was low and he said I shouldn't worry. Just try to move fast with all your pre requisites because I thought it was easy and it took long for me. A lot of doctors to see and lots of tests.. Good luck

2 days now waitin for insurance approval and eating salads and protein shakes..

Hi Jocy, my approval took two weeks with aetna. Hang in there... Keep us posted. I know the waiting game is hard. I was sleeved 3/12.

Woww I know. I'm just nervous because my surgery is supposed to be April 17th.. Almost there. But tell me how was your surgery , how's everything going for you?

Hi Jocy, the date is getting closer.., any word from Aetna? I am doing ok, was rough for me on the liquid phase but getting better every day. Keep me posted.

Hi back. I'm happy for u .. No news yet. But I or a call from registration from the hospital and so my pre surgery testing is on the 4th. Hope everything turns out for the better

Good luck with the wait! I used Aetna too... I think I called them every night lol! Finally though they had my approval and I actually called my surgeon's office and told them. They then called the insurance for the code and I had my date the same day I was sooo excited! It won't be long now!

No answer yet.. Still waiting for approval. 1 week past
