What was your approval process like with Aetna? I'm just starting my journey to get rid of this awful band giving me reflux and only lost 25lbs since 2008. Were u made to do a 3 month diet again? I would love to hear your approval stories and how long it took you!

I did the 3 month diet but my surgeon removed band and is having me wait 3 months anyway. I have gained since the removal but was approved by Aetna anyway quickly.

I had to do a 3 month supervised diet, get psych eval, and meet with a dietician once. I have POS Aetna same as you, submitted to Aetna and within a week they wanted more info. Since I had the band since 2006 and showed minimal weight loss they wanted yearly weigh in's to confirm I was compliant. Dr submitted info and I was approved in a few days. Surgery date June 26th 2015 Sleeve. YEAH! can't wait to have this band out of me!
