Re: Aetna PPO Insurance - I got approved in 48 hrs.

[Guest guest]

I got approved in 48 hrs with Aetna PPO. You just have to really

have your ducks in a row. I submitted, PCP letter, Pysch eval,

Letter from a therapist I worked with for 8 years, and a very

comprehensive letter from my current nutrionist (she's a CNS, not

RD) that included full weight history, diet history, and her

personal recommendations. I heard Aetna was tough too, but then

others I spoke to shared my experience.

Good luck and GO FOR IT!
