Guest guest Posted August 7, 2001 Report Share Posted August 7, 2001 THANK YOU ALL who replied to my plea for help. I have contacted some of you personally for more info. As I go thru the info and this process, I will post my results as they happen. Any and all continued info is GREATLY appreciated. I am allowed a second appeal before I have to pursue a lawsuit. I think I will have the Obesity Law Associates do this appeal for me. Maybe coming from a lawyer it will have more punch! We need to work together to get these Insurance Companies to wake up and quit denying us the coverage we are rightfully entitled to! Maybe this will be the case to get Aetna off its Butt and do what they should be doing the first time around! I wish there was someone who had the time & resources to do a study to see how much money they would save by approving this surgery in the first place and by stoping all the denial/appeal paperwork. With all the CoMorbids that go away or become much better requiring little or no additional medical help, that would save a TON of money! Well, Sorry to go on and on, but I get a little worked up over this. I hope you do to! Thanks for all the support! akplyr@... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
