Does anyone know if Cigna requires 3 or 6 months of diet before approving? My insurance says 3 months, but my doctors say 6 months?? So, so confused!

*drum roll* I called Cigna a moment ago and I am officially APPROVED! !! #BAM#CAUSEIMHAPPY# SLEEVERSROCK

Congratulations to everyone! ! We must keep in touch! I am super excited about our new journey! Sleeve buddies!!

I've actually had a good experience with Cigna ... I used true results .... From the beginning Cigna said I had to show 4 months of consecutive monitored weightloss and then it would be covered at 100%. They submitted me to insurance on April 17th I was approved by April 25th I was very shocked especially after they told me Cigna was the worst ... I wish you the best of luck

Angie0187 do you have a surgery date yet? Yay! Another sleeve buddy so glad you got approved the first go around!

My dr. Office turned in the paperwork to Cigna on May 14 and I had my ore-op appt at that time as well. Surgery is set for June 5th. I haven't heard from anyone since my last appt but have been out of state too. Will Cigna send me an approval letter first or do you think my dr will know first? The office said that Cigna has been good at approving within a week or two. I can't wait til tuesday to call and see if anyone knows more.

When I got home today, I found my letter in the mailbox! I am approved and Cigna only took a week from the date the dr. turned in the paperwork. Date is set for next week, June 5
