Question:
I am looking for anyone who has Aetna Us Heathcare HMO, California

I had my first appointment today with Dr. Fobi and what I wanted to ask is: Does anyone have this insurance and if so, were you able to get prequalified for the surgery? If you were able to, how long did it take? Thanks, Carola Martinez    — Carola M. (posted on April 10, 2000)

I have Aetna US Access. This is the same as the HMO but has several additional options: going in-network without a referral and going out of network. Of course, you pay more if you exercise the non-HMO options. I was preapproved for surgery in about three weeks. This was over the Christmas holidays or it probably would have taken less time.

I have Aetna US Healthcare HMO and was approved with no problem. I just went to the generic Aetna website, www.aetnaushc.com and Dr. Fobi is listed as a provider there. I am hoping you will have no problem. Good luck to you!
