- Aetna Insurance Question

December 29, 2008

Hi ,

I was just wondering if you would be able to share with me the

documentation you provided Aetna to prove you repositioned for 2 months, we just

got a denial from Aetna stating you have to prove you repo'd for 2 months, and

we definitely did, but not sure how to document it. Also do you know how many mm

severity they require for coverage? I have been on the phone with so many

different people and I always get the run around and no one seems to ever know

anything specific and it gets so frustrating!! My daughter graduates from her

band on Friday so it would be nice to see that $ back!! Thank you sooooooo much

for any info you can share- I appreciate it! I wish you and your family the best

of everything in 2009!!

Mom to McKenna - almost 9 months
