I submitted all my paper work on Friday 03/15/13 to the coordinator ... Now I have to wait to be approved by Cigna hopefully I am not missing no paper work????

Good luck to you..I have Cigna and it took me over a year to get approved..My surgeon's office said Cigna is the worst..But they usually will always deny the first submission so don't get discouraged if they do, just try try again...

I was approved instantly, but I was SERIOUSLY morbidly obese - diabetic, high blood pressure, etc.

I've been trying since the first of January to get approved. They originally denied me because my surgeon was out of network. Since then it has been a circus getting the doctor changed (same office) and the pre-certification contact has to be constantly prodded to do her job. I'm so frustrated, but I'm getting there. I'm hoping for surgery mid to late April. Fingers crossed.

Mine was approved in 5 business days, as long as you meet all their requirements you shouldn't have any problems

My BMI was 42 i think? over 40 and you do not need co-morbidities. I had sleep apnea an borderline for many other things though...
