Getting approved by Aetna



Recommended Posts

Im in the process oftrying ti get approved by Aetna, but im nervous im going to be denied. Ive been having an issue with getting 2 years of recorded weight history. Ive have 2 medical history from 2014 and didnt go the the dr in 2015. I did however had a pre employment physical for my job in 2015. On my work badge it has my weight and start date of 4-30-15 but an issue date of 1-23-16. I also have gerd, hiatus hernia, gastritis, & diabetes on both sides of my family including my father. My bmi is 45. I had to do 3 months weight lose training, an egd, amonst other things. really nervous and don't want to get turned down. Does anyone have any advice

I didn't need any history of weight problems for Aetna. All I need was the NUT visits, doctor letter, psych eval, and no net weight gain in the 3 months. Are you sure you need the weight history?

Yes ma'am. They are asking for medical recorded history for 2014 & 2015

I didnt go to the doctor much one year due to no insurance. as long as you have one recorded weight you will be ok. I was approved with Aetna in may. I was worried about the same, but if you were over weight 2014 and overweight now im sure they can figure out that you didn't get skinny in 2015.Have you looked at the clinical bulletin online? i followed that thing to the letter . had a copy printed out and saved on my phone . if I had any concern that I could not provide something I asked my surgical group. they know how to get approved and will work hard to get that money.

The raise in self-self assurance that we Nitro MXS witness in our sufferers makes this procedure extraordinarily profitable. a enormous number experience a lack of femininity and have an altered body picture much like our mastectomy patients before their reconstruction. the ones which might be significantly underdeveloped avoid bathing suits and as a substitute put on bulky t-shirts to difficult to understand their flat chests.

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
