Anyone have Cigna Tn and or Amarichoice tncare?



Recommended Posts

Hello new to the site. And have many questions. I finished my last 6 month appointment Friday June 5, 2015 my paper work was submitted Monday June 8, 2015. 32y 5'3 @ 247lbs

I'm wondering if anyone who has Cigna TN could tell me how long it took them to get an approval back and how long did it take to get a date after meeting with surgeon? (I can't have appointment with him until after approval.) what are some of the thing you have to do after meet with the surgeon before surgary

Also if you have Amarichoice (tenncare) as a secondary did they approve?

@@Beautifulblue I have Cigna and their response time is quick. Within a couple days. I've also been denied twice and now I'm waiting on a peer to peer review between my surgeon and Cigna, which will take place tomorrow afternoon and then I'll know if I'm approved. Fingers crossed for both of us!!

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.
