I have Aetna PPO and I was wondering what I’d have to pay out of pocket. We have a 15% coinsurance.

I have Aetna PPO. I was trying to get an estimate of what I will have to pay for the actual surgery. Anyone else have Aetna PPO?

Any luck getting approved?

My Aetna plan required me to choose from a very small list of facilities that they designated as centers for excellence. Maybe they rejected the provider if your plan does not exclude bariatric surgery.

I’m on Aetna PPO and got denied this week even though I meet all of the requirements for surgery. They said that bariatric surgery is not covered under this plan ?

That is so frustrating! You went through all of the steps and didn't get to have it? I'm one month in to my pre-surgery program and I also have aetna PPO. I just looked and AETNA PPO says surgery is covered. you should push back!

If I may can I ask you if this insurance is through your employer or or spouses & is it Aetna Erlanger? Reason for asking is my husband works for Erlanger here in Chattanooga,TN. and my deductible has been met for 2019.
