Aetna insurance

Just curious to know who has Aetna and what was your experience like? How was the approval process... did it take long? Are they super strict??

Hello....I have Aetna. I was required to do 3 months of classes, a phyc. Evaluation, and a nutrition appointment. My nurse told me DO NOT GAIN and I will get approved. I finished my requirements and was approved within 10 days my surgery is Wednesday!!

I had Aetna and i had to go through 6 months of weigh ins and it took about 3 weeks for approval.

I have aetna. I did the 6 months weigh in. I lost 14 pounds total during the process. I did gain 2 pounds my 3rd weigh in, but managed to get it off by the 4th weigh in. I was approved in 6 days after being submitted to insurance. Process really goes fast. Good luck to you. My surgery is on December 12th.

With Aetna, I️ chose the 3 month multi-disciplinary regimen with my surgeon and nutritionist. I️ just couldn’t have a net gain during that time. They allow 15 business days to respond for approval but my precert was started 10/20 and got approved 11/1....so that was 8 business days. My surgery date is 12/7. Best of wishes to you all!!!
