Will Aetna still accept me?



Recommended Posts

I did my 3 months nitrition visits, lost 15 lbs, psych eval, everything. Paperwork was submitted Monday...I just read somewhere Aetna changed it to 6 months this month or this week. Will this effect me even though I started before the change?

Thanks

Id assume if you started before they changed? But you never know might be best to ring them...

as long as you have your documention it was 3 months when you started, they will accept. You may have to fight them. If you search my posts they gave me an initial denial after I finished my 3 month program. I fought them and won!

Why did you have to fight them?

Why did you have to fight them? @3sonsitk because they said there was a center of excellence that was closer in miles to my home. just a bunch of mess. They said they needed a center of quality vs center of excellence. Just nonsense!

      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.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
