Hello,

I'm new here and just finished my 6 month weigh ins with my pcp. All preop test are complete and just waiting on approval from my insurance. I hope everything goes well. ????

Hi Renee,

I am new also! I am having surgery in three weeks, so hopefully we will be surgery sisters:)

Congrats to you both! Almost there...... It will be here before you know it!

I am excited and nervous! Any tips??

I am new here too. I just started my liver reduction diet and am pending insurance approval. I am tenatively scheduled for 12/15. I am having the bypass. I am so excited and scared!

I too am waiting for insurance approval. I was hoping to get a call yesterday (Friday) but it didn't come. I hope it happens soon so I can plan my life for December... Lol!

I'm also waiting. My information was sent on November 3rd...still waiting UN-patiently

Hey everyone. I'm on pins and needles during this waiting period. ????????????

I'm so happy to find a support group like this. My family isn't 100% supportive and it's hurtful sometimes

Hi everyone! I am a newbie to the group. I go the surgeon for my final update appointment on Monday before they submit everything to Aetna. I'm praying it all goes well. I would love to have surgery before the year is over.

Do any of you have Aetna for insurance? If so how long did it take you to get approved?

No I have healthfirst. I sent in all my paperwork on Tuesday. Just waiting ????????????

I hope it doesn't take too long. I should hear something by next week or at least 14 days

Thanks. I think the waiting part is the hardest ????

Good luck! Waiting on that approval was so hard!!
