I statrted calling Aetna last Tuesday, i caled them everyday, only to be told  on Thurday They did not ell all of y paperwork they started asking me questions and I had no idea what tehy were talking about, so the wonderful guy at Aetna put me on hold called Peachtree Bariatrics talkd  surgeon coordinator got al the appropriate information, He then came back on line gave me a reference number and the case nurses name and stated that Peachtree would be faxing pver some additional information and hopefully I would have answer by Tues 9/23, but  of course I called back on Friday just to make sure they recieved the paperwork and they did so ....WALLA here we go again waiting, waiting , waiting.    One thing for sure Aetna definetly knows who I am.

Last week the surgeons office states they did not recieve the 2 yr weight histoery, So I went to the PCP only to find out they can nt give it to me that I need to wait for a week because I need to fill out a special form, So, I went next door to the Urgent Car that I always go to  they pulled my faile and gave a copy of the prgress notess with the weight for the last 3 years I then drove all the way downtown tot he Peachtree Bariatrics and put the papers in the coordinators hand, she told me that she would sent the packet over right away and that was bout 10am, I called Aetna this afternoon and they stat they have not recieved and paperwork as of yet, I will call again to Aetna in the AM, If they still dont have I will call Peachtree to confirm the packet has been submitted
