For OH community members celebrating the July 4th Independence Day...We hope you have a happy and safe holiday.
Hi Nan I was just informed today that I was denied my surgery. Can you please email me the letter of appeal so I can start the process. My e-mail address is [email protected]. I would greatly appreciate it. Aetna is saying that I didn't meet the criteria for the 90 program. They stated that they only had documentation for 56 days which is untrue because my surgeon would not submit before 90 days! Please help me! Keerah
ObesityHelp had the opportunity for an exclusive interview with MasterChef Judge, Graham Elliot. This month marks his one year VSG surgery anniversary, and he's lost 150 pounds.
Graham is the Keynote Speaker at the OH Conference 2014. At the Conference, you'll hear his story and have an opportunity to talk with him in the question/answer part of his presentation.
I'm nearing the end of fulfilling all the requirements for submission for approval. Does anyone have experience with B.C. or, more specifically, Blue Cross of Idaho Southwest Silver? I'm anxious about the possibility of denial.

Hello everyone! I am new to this forum and have recently decided that i want to get VSG. I attended my seminar yesterday and am scheduled to see the doctor on monday. I am just curious as to the requirements my insurance has. I have united healthcare optimum choice. Do they require you to attend the nutrition class for 3 months or 6? Thanks in advance

I believe an approval is good for at least 6 months. I have CIGNA as well and was denied the first time for the same reason. It took about 2 weeks for the appeal to be approved. Good luck.
VSG on 1/14/14 with Dr. Samuel Wasser
