new to site and have a million questions???

hey everyone and i'm trying to have surgery i went to the meeting in middletown and have my first appt. with dr. arronow i just feel like i should be doing something before my appt. i'm so nervous i won't get approved i have healthnet through husky my dr said he would help and submitt all that is needed i just am going crazy if someone has had the surgery in the area with"state" ins please let me know and let me know if i should be doing anything. please help!!!

My husband works for the state so our plans are slightly different - same basic concepts though.  I have Anthem and they were great - I've paid $40 out of pocket an received approval in just a few days  I did a search on OH and I see several of Dr. Aranow's patients who have had WLS and have had Husky insurance.  You should call HealthNet and find out what their requirements are.  Good luck.

my daughter has the same insurence, and she called and said yes they  cover wls. best of luck teresa

I would suggest calling and checking to see if they approve it, Other than that relax and enjoy the ride to a healthier you. I know that's easier said than done, but right now enjoy it. The stress comes soon enough. Oh wait NM. I had that from my hubby. Just enjoy.
