OH NO!!!! That is the unfairest of things to have happen the day before surgery :(

Did they give you any idea how long until they will re-look at your claim???

Sorry that happened to you!

My Dr would not schedule surgery until ins was approved.

Guess I thought they were all like that.

Sorry to hear that....mine gives a fake date to the insurance Co, but never gave it to me...they don't "really" schedule it until they have the written approval in hand. I guess now that is a good thing.....will they appeal it for you??

Im just so sad been cryin all day why did they give me a date im already on loa ect husband took vacation. So unfair the eay they did tbis

I think it's the doctor. They are suppose to send everything in and get approved. Aetna wouldn't have contacted you the doctors office dropped the ball. So did the cAncel the surgery too? The doctor should have been on the phone with them working it out.

yes thats what i dont understand i even asked the program manger what to do sould i goahead and put in my loa and she said yes

Aetna denied me too this week!!!! They are looking at my weight from 4 years ago!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm so mad!! Now I have to fix this issue and go trough this appeal process:( uhg I'm suppose to have the best coverage plan but having nothing but issues with them!!

I feel guilty! Y'all are way more deservimg than me and Aetna approved me without any hassel. However, I think the ladies that deal with the insurance at the dr office were awesome. They told me what I would need and we got it done. I only had one little curve ball at the end. Hang in there. I have prayers and confidence the appeal will work. Your doctor should go to bat for you!! Everyone let me know what happens.
