Has anyone with Aetna PPO been approved?

[Guest guest]

Hi! My husband and I both want to have the MGB and are waiting for

insurance approval. To cut the suspense we thought we'd ask if

anyone with Aetna - the PPO - has been approved. Nothing like

knowing your odds up front!

Thanks!

Hey, Suz! I am from Ok. and have Prudential(just bought by Aetna) and they

so far have approved 70% or " out-of network " . I am appealing! I know of

several people (post-op) who have had 100% paid so...it's worth a try

anyway!! You can also go to obesityhelp.com to the WLS web-site.Click on

help...on the next page you can click on insurance and it will go to a page

with a map of the U.S. You can click on any state and see how many people

have your type insurance. It's alphabetical so Aetna is at the top! I went

to many states and e-mailed a lot of post-op people and got lots of info.

Only a few have gone to Dr. R but is something to pass the time while you

wait and it will give you hope! Good luck ! You will both be in my prayers!

Ask about your " stop-loss " provision in your policy. That is the most

you should have to pay out of pocket, even if they say they are only

going to pay 70%.

All Aetna policies are the same when it comes to covering this

surgery, but different policies pay different amounts. Aetna

approved me within 24 hours. Here is their coverage policy:

Good luck!
