New

I'm new here and just had my first visit. I have aetna choice pos II and chose the 3 month plan so hoping to have surgury in June if all goes well. Any advice?? Anyone have any problems with Aetna???

 I had an Aetna POS plan when I had my surgery and I did the 3-month option.  Just be sure to provide ALL the documentation they require (and note that supervision for three months requires FOUR visits to each of the health professionals supervising you).  Keep food and exercise logs and have your surgeon's office submit those to the insurance company along with all the other info.

I qualified for surgery based on my BMI alone, so i didnt have to have special documentation for comorbidities, but I was approved 2 days after Aetna received the 50+ page fax from my surgeon's office.

My bmi is 42 , my dr. said I won't need the letter from my primary and just need 3 months documented visits and I've started my diet and excercise log. Crossing my fingers and hoping everything goes as planned.
