aetna approval letters



Recommended Posts

ok im not sure if all approval letters look the same but i just received mine.

on the coverage timeframe my letter states 5/25/09-5/25/09, which makes no sense to me because that's the same day and i received it today. now is that date supposed to mean that you are only approved if your dates are between those two dates.

it's after hours so i can't call right now. i was just wondering if other aetna letters looked this way or should it actually be different dates there.

thanks

My Aetna letter had 12/31/2099-12/31/2099, so I don' t think it's unusual. You may want call to check, maybe I should too....

Mine said 3/9/2009-3/9/2009 I didn't call them because that is the date that your surgery was approved for coverage. I don't know why they write it like that. But I don't think you need to call them. My surgery is next month and it's all good.!

I was told that that is how they send the letters out. You have to call your Dr. office to schedule a date.

Just by coincidence I found out today you'll get an updated one in the mail once the date is scheduled. I just did.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      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.
